Table of Contents
Granular Geomechanics provides a comprehensive exploration of soils as granular materials and the manner in which a soil’s engineering properties form grain-scale mechanics. The book focuses on granular composition and packing, grain interactions, discrete granular modeling and continuum constitutive modeling.
- Provides a coherent presentation on granular geomechanics for engineers
- Presents essential background information in each chapter, along with a list of works for further study
- Uses tensor notation, also including a brief explanation of conventions and operations in the book's appendix
