Flac And Numerical Modeling In Geomechanics 2001

A collection of 54 papers selected for presentation at the 2nd FLAC Symposium. The contributions cover a wide range of topics from engineering applications to theoretical developments in the areas of embankment and slope stability, mining, tunnelling, and soil and structure interaction.

Sixty-five papers cover a wide range of topics from engineering applications to theoretical developments in the areas of embankment and slope stability, underground cavity design and mining; dynamic analysis, soil and structure interaction, and coupled processes and fluid flow.

Sixty-five papers cover a wide range of topics from engineering applications to theoretical developments in the areas of embankment and slope stability, underground cavity design and mining; dynamic analysis, soil and structure interaction, and coupled processes and fluid flow.

The contributions in this volume are divided into eight main themes: slopes and embankments, underground structures, coupled processes and fluid flow, dynamic analysis, soil-structure interaction, tectonics, numerical techniques / special topics, constitutive models / material behavior.

This volume contains a collection of 39 papers selected for presentation at the third FLAC Symposium. Contributions cover a wide range of topics including constitutive models, slope stability, underground cavity design, mining applications, soil structure interaction, dynamic analysis and thermal analyses. As in previous FLAC Symposia, these proceedings illustrate the great variety of FLAC applications in geomechanics. This volume provides descriptions of both engineering applications and theoretical developments, and may be used as a guide to help FLAC users in their geotechnical analyses.

Forty one years ago, the International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) held its 1st International Congress in Lisbon, Portugal. In July 2007, the 11th ISRM Congress returned to Lisbon, where the Portuguese Geotechnical Society (SPG), the Portuguese National Group of the ISRM, hosted the meeting. The Second Half Century of Rock Mechanics comprises

In this fully up-to-date volume, important new developments and applications of discrete element modelling are highlighted and brought together for presentation at the First International UDEC/3DEC Symposium.Papers covered the following key areas:* behaviour of masonry structures (walls, bridges, towers, columns)* stability and deformation of tunne
