Geotechnical Finite Element Analysis provides the latest practical
guidance and comprehensive explanations of using Finite Element Analysis
(FEA) in geotechnical design from planning an analysis through to
results validation and reporting. This highly illustrated guide expands
on the practical benefits of FEA, such as a faster and less expensive
design cycle, increased productivity, and increased revenue, and
explains the decisions that need to be made at each stage Finite
Element Design of Geotechnical Structures: Features as the first
practical and internationally-applicable guidebook for practitioners in
this technically challenging but rapidly growing field Works as a
reference tool for competent FEA users by providing quick explanations
of complex issues Includes detailed guidance on using FEA together
with Eurocode 7 Clarifies the factors to consider when selecting from
the various constitutive models Attests as a training aid, facilitated
by complete worked examples Geotechnical Finite Element Analysis aims
to provide all the essential, practical learning material in one place.
As a practical guide, textbook, reference tool and training tool, it is
aimed at practicing structural engineers, those undergoing training in
geotechnical FEA, design practice and those performing geotechnical FEA
in design.
