Advanced Mathematical and Computational Geomechanics

Geomechanics is the mechanics of geomaterials, i.e. soils and rocks, and deals with fascinating problems such as settlements, stability of excavations, tunnels and offshore platforms, landslides, earthquakes and liquefaction. This edited book presents recent mathematical and computational tools and models to describe and simulate such problems in geomechanics and geotechnical engineering. It includes a collection of contributions emanating from the three Euroconferences GeoMath ("Mathematical Methods in Geomechanics") that were held between 2000 and 2002 in Innsbruck/Austria and Horto/Greece.Kolymbas, Dimitrios is the author of 'Advanced Mathematical and Computational Geomechanics' with ISBN 9783540405474 and ISBN 354040547X.
