Plasticity and Geotechnics
Springer 2007; US$ 159.99Attempts to summarize the major developments in the field of plasticity theory for geotechnical materials and its applications to geotechnical analysis and design. This book covers several developments of appropriate constitutive theories of stress-strain relations for geomaterials and a range of analytical and computational techniques. more...
Reliability-Based Design in Geotechnical Engineering
Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 170.00This book encourages geotechnical engineers to apply reliability-based design in a realistic context that recognises the complex variabilities in geomaterials. It provides geotechnical examples illustrating reliability analyses and design. more...
Geotechnical Engineering
Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 64.95This textbook provides a solid grounding in the mechanics of soils and of structures interacting with soil. Readers will gain a good grasp of applied mechanics, testing and experimentation, and methods for observing real structures. more...
Decoding Eurocode 7
Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 135.00Presenting the essential information of Eurocode 7, this guide uses summary tables, diagrams, worked examples and real-life site investigations to illustrate the important concepts of the new geotechnical design standard. more...
Strength Analysis in Geomechanics
Springer 2006; US$ 119.99Presents a different approach for the solution of geomechanical problems, taking into account deformation and fractures of soils in explicitly. The method in this book reveals the influence of the form of a structure on its ultimate state. It also considers the rheological law which accounts for large strains, and a non-linear unsteady creep. more...
Geotechnics of Soft Soils
Taylor & Francis 2008; US$ 209.95The motivation of the 2nd International Workshop on Geotechnics of Soft Soils, organised by the AMGISS network (3-5 September 2008, Glasgow, Scotland), was to bring together practitioners and academics to discuss recent developments in soft soil modelling, focussing on ground improvement. This volume is a collection of papers from the workshop. more...

Bodemdaling langs de Nederlandse kust
IOS Press 2008; US$ 83.00Bodemdaling langs de Nederlandse kust geeft laatste stand van zaken weer wat betreft de lokale bovenmatige bodembeweging. De bijdragen van de auteurs in het kader van de quick scan in 2005 zijn over het algemeen beknopter dan die van latere analyses die in dit boek zijn gepubliceerd. Dit werk eindigt met conclusies en aanbevelingen, zoals die tijdens... more...
