Synopsis

16 European countries are represented & the contributions demonstrate vigorous activity across a range of interests, but emphasise the importance of practical application of numerical techniques. Several papers address the problem of localised deformations, so important in many geotechnical situations involving shear banding. Specific areas of practical application include thermo-mechanical problems, tunnels & pipelines, foundations, reinforced soil, retaining walls, slopes & rock mechanics. This volume is essential reading for everyone wishing to keep abreast of the techniques of modern computer analyses applied to geotechnical engineering practice.
