DESCRIPTION:
… The book can serve as a valuable reference for researchers, teachers and students in soil mechanics, rock mechanics, geotechnics and civil engineering." (Olivian Simionescu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. The author analyses classical, modern and recent developments of constitutive relations for geomaterials and a number of analytical and computational techniques for solving geotechnical design problems. 1151, 2009). From the reviews: "This book presents plasticity theories of geomaterials … and their applications to geotechnical analysis and design
"Great Book" according to Hamid Tohidifar (PhD Researcher in Geomechanics and Particle Crushing). Very Great Book Especially for Researchers Who have a Background on Plasticity. If you have some difficulty in understanding of some concepts like "Bounding Surface" plasticity, then this book will help you regarding this matter. As I said, you must have a background on plasticity and continuum mechanics.
Plasticity and Geotechnics is the first attempt to summarize and present in a single volume the major achievements in the field of plasticity theory for geotechnical materials and its applications to geotechnical analysis and design. The book emerges from the author’s belief that there is an urgent need for the geotechnical and solid mechanics community to have a unified presentation of plasticity theory and its application to geotechnical engineering.
