Abstract
   It is important to forecast the run out-distance of landslides mass to reduce the landslide disaster. This research aims to analyze the key parameter that control the run out-distance of landslides mass. The numerical analysis is an effective approach to analyze the dynamic mechanism of the landslide. Material Point Method (MPM) is used in this research to cope with large deformation of soil. The parameters to be analyzed in MPM model are geometry, physical property and frictional coefficients to observe the contribution to run out-distance. The numerical result of different length and width of landslide mass shows that the run-out distance of landslide mass is affected by the ultimate load capacity.
