Description

Hardbound. With the present state of development of finite element computer software and high-speed digital computer hardware, an almost unlimited number of solutions to soil mechanics and soil structure interaction problems can now be obtained. These are not limited to linear elastic small deformation solid mechanics, but can be extended to include problems of various kinds involving material and geometric nonlinearities. This book is concerned with the development of numerical tools for solutions of nonlinear analysis problems in soil mechanics.
