In view of its extreme complexity the mathematical description of the mechanical behaviour of granular materials is an extremely difficult task. Today many different models compete with each other. However, the complexity of the models hinders their comparison, and the potential users are confused and, often, disencouraged. This book is expected to serve as a milestone in the present situation, to evaluate the present methodes, to clear up the situation, to focus and encourage for further research activities.

Constitutive models are the key-stone not only for understanding the mechanical behaviour of granular materials (mainly soils but also other granulates such as sugar, wheat, coal, pellets) but also for carrying out numerical predictions by means of the finite elements method. However the extreme complexity of the behaviour of granular materials gave rise to confusing multiplicity of hardy tractable constitutive models proposed so far. the present book comprises a selection of the state-of the-art contributions of world-wide leading specialists with the aim to evaluate, specify and re-assess the present achievements as well as to point on needs for future research.
