From the Publisher
Geomaterials -- materials whose mechanical behavior depends on the pressure to which they are subjected -- include concrete, soils and rocks. The availability of numerical modeling, which has transformed the study of geomechanics, makes possible the application of numerical methods to the materials and topics treated here. These include brittle and ductile materials, water saturated and partially saturated geomaterials, large and small strains, steady state and transient problems, soil dynamics, strain localization and applications related to natural hazards.
