Computer Applications in Geotechnical Engineering
Use of computer in the analysis of geotechnical problems: stress distribution in soil masses, settlement analysis, seepage flow, earth pressure, shoring (retaining walls, sheet piles, strutted excavations), slope stability, foundation analysis, and embankment and excavation problems. Geotechnical engineering modeling is reviewed. For each application the necessary theoretical background is reviewed and discrete modeling is discussed.
