Numerical methods in rock mechanics
Book
·
OSTI ID:6551529
Reflects the major changes in rock mechanics during the last decade, particularly in the use of computational methods. The authors discuss the properties and behavior of rocks and rock masses and the ways in which these properties and behaviors can be modelled numerically. The book describes the most important methods used in this numerical modelling-the finite element method, boundary element methods, and the discrete element method-and their applications. Examples of the applications for which they can be used are also provided.
