About this event

The main objective of this short course is describing the implementation of numerical modeling in geotechnical engineering. The course focuses on the practical application of numerical modeling in the simulation and prediction of geo-structures such as retaining walls, foundations, and tunnels. Several topics including numerical modeling procedures, constitutive models, in-situ stress analysis, boundary conditions, meshing, and material properties will be discussed. Commercial programs for computational geotechnics will be introduced, and finite difference and finite element methods for numerical modeling will be described. FLAC, the finite difference program developed by Itasca Consulting Group Inc., will be considered for conducting practical simulations.
