Strain localization, bifurcation and plastic instability phenomena play important roles as precursors of failure of geomaterials. In geomechanics, it has been recognized that stiff soils such as overconsolidated or cemented soils are progressively strained and reach failure with shear banding and that a strain-softening phenomenon in the stress-strain relation is observed on a macroscopic level. The proper modelling of strain localization and bifurcation phenomena and its role in deformation and progressive can be very significant in such engineering problems as slope stability,...

Computational Modeling of Multiphase Geomaterials discusses how numerical methods play a very important role in geotechnical engineering and in the related activity of computational geotechnics. It shows how numerical methods and constitutive modeling can help predict the behavior of geomaterials such as soil and rock.
After presenting the fundamentals of continuum mechanics, the book explores recent advances in the use of modeling and numerical methods for multiphase geomaterial applications. The authors describe the constitutive modeling of soils for rate-dependent behavior, strain...
