Modeling and computing is becoming an essential part of the
analysis and design of an engineered system. This is also true of
"geotechnical systems", such as soil foundations, earth dams and
other soil-structure systems. The general goal of modeling and
computing is to predict and understand the behaviour of the system
subjected to a variety of possible conditions/scenarios (with
respect to both external stimuli and system parameters), which
provides the basis for a rational design of the system. The essence
of this is to predict the response of the system to a set of
external forces. The modelling and computing essentially involve
the following three phases: (a) Idealization of the actual physical
problem, (b) Formulation of a mathematical model represented by a
set of equations governing the response of the system, and (c)
Solution of the governing equations (often requiring numerical
methods) and graphical representation of the numerical results.
This book will introduce these phases. MATLAB (R) codes and MAPLE
(R) worksheets are available for those who have bought the book.
