Recent years have witnessed the development of computational
geomechanics as an important branch of engineering. The use of
modern computational techniques makes it possible to deal with many
complex engineering problems, taking into account many of the
typical properties of geotechnical materials (soil and rock), such
as the coupled behaviour of pore water and solid material,
nonlinear elasto-plastic behaviour, and transport processes. This
book provides an introduction to these methods, presenting the
basic principles of the geotechnical phenomena involved as well as
the numerical models for their analysis, and including full
listings of computer programs (in PASCAL). The types of
geotechnical problems considered cover a wide range of
applications, varying from classical problems such as slope
stability, analysis of foundation piles and sheet pile walls to
finite element analysis of groundwater flow, elasto-plastic
deformations, consolidation and transport problems.
