| Description: |
This reference describes and illustrates the principles and techniques of limit analysis as applied to soil mechanics in detail. It presents advances on bearing capacity problems of concrete blocks or rock and discusses the modern development of the theory of soil plasticity. |
| Synopsis: |
Devoted to the theory and applications of limit analysis as applied to soil mechanics, this text also contains information on soil plasticity and rock-like material such as concrete. The first part of the book describes the techniques of limit analysis in detail and are illustrated by many examples. The second part deals with the applications of limit analysis to "classical soil mechanics problems" and in the third part the author presents advances on bearing capacity problems of concrete blocks or rock. The fourth part discusses the modern development of the theory of soil plasticity.Key FeaturesTwo elastic-plastic soil models and one elastic-plastic-fracture model for concrete are presentedNumerical results obtained by the finite element method along with limit analysis solutions are presentedThe layout of the book is such that the voluminous quantity of material it contains is nevertheless concise, ordered and logicalA step-by-step presentation of the principles of limit analysis and the general techniques that can be used in deriving statically admissible stress fields and kinematically admissible velocity fields |
