Strength Analysis in Geomechanics

November 30, 2017December 9, 2017 johnywong

It is hardly possible to find a single rheological law for all the soils. However they have mechanical properties (elasticity,plasticity,creep,damage etc. ) that are met in some special sciences, and basic equations of these disciplines […]
