Numerical methods are very powerful tools for use in geotechnical engineering, particularly in computational geotechnics. Interest is strong in the new field of multi-phase nature of geomaterials, and the area of computational geotechnics is expanding.
Alongside their companion volume Computational Modeling of Multiphase Geomaterials (CRC Press, 2012), Fusao Oka and Sayuri Kimoto cover recent progress in several key areas, such as air-water-soil mixture, cyclic constitutive models, anisotropic models, noncoaxial models, gradient models, compaction bands (a form of volumetric strain localization and strain localization under dynamic conditions), and the instability of unsaturated soils.
The text also includes applications of computational modeling to large-scale excavation of ground, liquefaction analysis of levees during earthquakes, methane hydrate development, and the characteristics of contamination using bentonite. The erosion of embankments due to seepage flow is also presented.

About the Author
Fusao Oka is a professor emeritus of Kyoto University and president of the
LIQCA Liquefaction Geo Research Institute. Until 1997, he was a professor
in the Department of Civil and Earth Resources Engineering of Kyoto
University. He specializes in computational geomechanics with particular
regard to constitutive equations, consolidation, liquefaction, and strain
localization analyses. He organized several international conferences and
workshops, such as the Fourth International Workshop on Localization and
Bifurcation Theory for Soils and Rocks (1997), the ISSMGE International
Symposium on Deformation and Progressive Failure in Geomaterials (1997),
the International Symposium on Prediction and Simulation Methods for
Geohazard Mitigation (2009), and the 14th International Conference of
IACMAG (2014). He has published more than 300 papers on geomechanics
and is a co-author of Computational Modeling of Multiphase Geomaterials
(CRC Press, 2012).
Sayuri Kimoto had been working on geomechanics as an associate professor
at Kyoto University for years. She is presently a professor of Osaka Sangyo
University. She specializes in the elasto-viscoplastic constitutive equations
of soils and the numerical analysis of multiphase geomaterials, such as the
behavior analysis of seabed ground due to the production of methane gas.
She is a co-author of Computational Modeling of Multiphase Geomaterials
(CRC Press, 2012).

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to UK BOOKS STORE, London, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
