Computer Methods and Recent Advances in Geomechanics

Computer Methods and Recent Advances in Geomechanics contains the proceedings of the 14th International Conference of the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (Kyoto, Japan, 22-25 September, 2014). The contributions cover computer methods, material modeling and testing, applications to a wide range of geomechanical issues, and recent advances in various areas that may not necessarily involve computer methods, including: - Development and usage of new materials; - Constitutive modeling of materials including deformation, damage and failure; - Verification of existing and new constitutive models; - Micro-macro correlations of material response including non-destructive testing; - New techniques for material and site characterization; - Computer-aided engineering and expert system; - Innovative construction using new materials and computer methods; - Design and rehabilitation of infrastructure; - Use of system and optimization procedures, and - Remote sensing. Computer Methods and Recent Advances in Geomechanics will be of interest to researchers and engineers involved in geotechnical mechanics and geo-engineering.
