The proposed method addresses instabilities in traditional single-point MPM by using distinct sets of material points to model the soil and water phases separately (double-point approach). A modified F-bar technique is derived to stabilise advanced soil constitutive models such as SANISAND, allowing for a more realistic simulation of soil behaviour. The water phase is solved implicitly, enabling significantly longer time steps compared to fully explicit MPM approaches. Landslide examples using the SANISAND constitutive model are presented in this paper, demonstrating the performance of the modified F-bar method and highlighting the importance of the double-point approach.}, author = {Xie, Mian and Navas, Pedro and Lopez-Querol, Susana} }
