description In this study, the seismic input model of slope is proposed to investigate the dynamic response of the rock slope under obliquely incident seismic wave on the basis of the time-domain wave analysis method. The model includes viscoelastic boundary considering the infinite foundation radiation damping and the seismic obliquely incident method. The semi-infinite space numerical example is simulated to verify the validity and accuracy of the model. Based on the established model, the effects of the variation of the seismic wave incident angles and slope angles on the dynamic response of a rock slope are analyzed. The results demonstrate that the changes of the incident angle and the slope angle have no discernible effect on the dynamic response of the rock slope when the P wave is obliquely incident. As the SV wave is obliquely incident, the peak ground acceleration amplification coefficient along the slope surface gradually increases with the increase of the incident angle; when the slope angle gradually increases, the peak ground acceleration amplification coefficient along the slope surface will also gradually increase at the upper part of the slope. The research results can provide some basis for the pseudostatic method to determine the seismic action coefficient.
