Numerical analyses such as the Finite Element Method (FEM) and the Boundary Element
Method (BEM) are powerful tools for analyzing the mechanical behaviour of structures. In the …

This monograph is the well-edited and organized proceedings of the 3rd European
Conference on Numerical Methods in Geotechnical Engineering-ECONMIG'94, which …

Field measurements are well recognized as powerful tool for monitoring the stability of rock
structures such as tunnels, underground caverns, slopes, etc. The measurement results …

Using FEM for geotechnical design of constructions with high impact of the soil–structure
interaction is a common practice. However, for obtaining results close to the real behavior of …

This paper deals with a bibliographic database dedicated to the comparison between FEM
results and in situ measurements for geotechnical structures. This database, called MOMIS …

The solution of stress analysis problems through numerical, computer oriented techniques is
becoming more and more popular in soil and rock engineering. This is due to the ability of …

In geotechnical engineering it is often important to take into account construction path,
constitutive modelling and three-dimensional effects. In such cases the use of the most …

Using FEM for geotechnical design of constructions with high impact of the soil–structure
interaction is a common practice. However, for obtaining results close to the real behavior of …

Determining parameters, including geomechanical characteristics of rocks or rock mass,
initial stress state, underground water conditions, permeability, etc., with high accuracy is …

The usage of finite element analyses (FEA) in recent years has increased tremendously as a
result of (i) increasing number of major geotechnical projects that need to be constructed …
