Numerical methods in geotechnical engineering

Of special interest to academics and engineers in geotechnical engineering, this volume contains contributions on computer codes, algorithms, numerical methods, and Eurocode; constitutive, discontinuum, particulate, and ground improvement modeling; large deformation and large strain analysis; flow and consolidation; and unsaturated soil mechanics. It also explores the realms of artificial intelligence, reliability and probability analysis, and dynamic problems and geohazards. Special attention is focused on challenges such as slopes and cuts, embankments, shallow foundations, settlements, piles, deep excavations, retaining walls, tunnels and caverns. In addition, the book examines areas relevant to offshore geotechnical engineering.
