A Primer to Theoretical Soil Mechanics is about adapting continuum
mechanics to granular materials. The field of continuum mechanics
offers many fruitful concepts and methods, however there is
declining interest in the field due to its complex and fragmented
nature. This book's purpose is therefore to facilitate the
understanding of the theoretical principles of soil mechanics, as
well as introducing the new theory of barodesy. This title argues
for barodesy as a simple alternative to the plasticity theory used
currently and provides a systematic insight into this new
constitutive model for granular materials. This book therefore
introduces a complex field from a fresh and innovative perspective
using simple concepts, succinct equations and explanatory sketches.
Intended for advanced undergraduates, graduates and PhD students,
this title is also apt for researchers seeking advanced training on
fundamental topics.
