Physical Soil Mechanics

Viac o knihe

The book explores the unique properties of soil, presenting it as a distinct matter characterized by complex behaviors under stress and deformation. It delves into the mathematical modeling of soil mechanics, utilizing cyclic and strange attractors to validate elastoplastic and hypoplastic relations. The discussion extends to thermal and seismic effects, while also addressing challenges such as localization and skeleton decay. With numerous examples and potential applications, the text offers a comprehensive look at boundary value problems and the energetic principles governing soil behavior.
