  • Earth Structuresby Ivan Vanícek; Martin Vanícek

    Springer 2008; US$ 179.99

    Soil represents the oldest and most-used building material, yet up to now the subject of earthen structures has not been fully addressed. This book describes the principles of soil as construction material including its treatment using geosynthetics and stabilization. The book focuses on the principles, logic of processes, understanding of the most... more...

  • Experimental Unsaturated Soil Mechanicsby T. Schanz

    Springer 2007; US$ 299.99

    These proceedings are a continuation of the series of International Conferences in Germany entitled "Mechanics of Unsaturated Soils." The primary objective is to discuss and understand unsaturated soil behaviour such that engineered activities are made better with times in terms of judgement and quality. We all realise by now that in addition... more...

  • Soil Stress-Strain Behaviorby Hoe I. Ling; Luigi Callisto; Dov Leshchinsky

    Springer 2007; US$ 209.99

    The material in this work is focused on recent developments in research into the stress-strain behavior of geomaterials, with an emphasis on laboratory measurements, soil constitutive modeling and behavior of soil structures (such as reinforced soils, piles and slopes). The latest advancements in the field, such as the rate effect and dynamic behavior... more...
