Geomechanical Challenges: Practices and Innovations
By: Viladkar, M. N.
Publisher: New York Springer 2018Edition: Vol 48 (1), March.Description: 1-51p.Subject(s): Civil EngineeringOnline resources: Click Here In: Indian geotechnical journalSummary: After briefly reviewing the past and the current status in geotechnical engineering, an attempt has been made here to discuss three case studies related to extreme loading conditions like impact and blast loading, extreme wind loading and severe squeezing ground condition in lower Himalaya. These were really very challenging problems and some innovative solutions were provided which were implemented in the field. Subsequently, attempt has also been made to identify some of the more challenging problems which are basically coupled, multi-physics–multi-mechanics problems. To undertake such problems, however, there is a need to widen the scope of geotechnical engineering into a wider area of geo-engineering.Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
