Bifurcations, Instabilities, Degradation in Geomechanics - Hardback

This book provides an up-to-date review of developments in the field of bifurcations and instabilities in geomechanics from some of the world's leading experts. Prominent international researchers and practitioners of bifurcations and instabilities in geomechanics debate the developments and applications which have occurred over the last few decades. The topics covered include modeling of bifurcation, structural failure of geomaterials and geostructures, advanced analytical, numerical and experimental techniques, and application and development of generalised continuum models etc. In addition analytical solutions, numerical methods, experimental techniques, and case histories are presented. Beside fundamental research findings, applications in geotechnical, petroleum, mining, and bulk materials engineering are emphasised.
