The Premixing Method: Prinicple, Design And Constr
Taylor & Francis 2003; US$ 92.95This text delivers a description of the method, developed to prevent liquefaction, in which soil used for reclamation is first treated by adding a small amount of cement. more...
Spatial Contact Problems in Geotechnics
Springer 2010; US$ 169.99This book presents a systematic approach to numerical solution for a wide range of spatial contact problems of geotechnics. On the basis of the boundary element method, new techniques and effective computing algorithms are considered. Special attention is given to the formulation and analysis of the spatial contact models for elastic bases. Besides... more...
Advances in Computed Tomography for Geomaterials
Wiley 2013; US$ 230.00This title discusses a broad range of issues related to the use of computed tomography in geomaterials and geomechanics. The contributions cover a wide range of topics, including deformation and strain localization in soils, rocks and sediments; fracture and damage assessment in rocks, asphalt and concrete; transport in porous media; oil and gas exploration... more...
Proceedings of the 15th European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
IOS Press 2011; US$ 979.00This publication contains the papers presented at the 15th European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, held in Athens, Greece. Considerable progress has been made in recent decades in understanding the engineering behavior of those hard soils and weak rocks that clearly fall into either the field of soil or of rock mechanics,... more...
The Mechanics of Soils and Foundation
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 55.95An update of the hugely useful first edition, this textbook explains the theoretical basis of geomechanics for civil engineers and its practical applications. more...
Reliability and Statistics in Geotechnical Engineering
Wiley 2005; US$ 170.00Risk and reliability analysis is an area of growing importance in geotechnical engineering, where many variables have to be considered. Statistics, reliability modeling and engineering judgement are employed together to develop risk and decision analyses for civil engineering systems. The resulting engineering models are used to make probabilistic... more...
Advanced Geotechnical Analyses
Taylor & Francis 1991; US$ 420.00The chapters in this text show that a blend of engineering judgement and advanced principles of engineering mechanics may be used to resolve many complex geotechnical engineering problems. more...
Introduction to Soft Soil Geotechnique
IOS Press 2011; US$ 72.00Habitable space in deltas and river basins is under increasing pressure worldwide from economic expansion, population growth and the impacts of climate change. It is expected that within 40 years, 80 per cent of all people will live in deltaic regions. An understanding of the complex behavior of the subsoil is particularly important in these areas.... more...
Geotechnical Engineering: New Horizons
IOS Press 2011; US$ 174.00This book presents the proceedings of the 21st European Young Geotechnical Engineers Conference, held in the Netherlands in September 2011. Six sections cover the topics of: underground construction; pile foundation and ground improvement; soil dynamics; dams, erosion and piping; deformation and soil properties and geothermics. The papers included... more...
