Geomechanical modelling
Date: 10/1/2010
This projects aims at improving our fundamental understanding of behaviour of geo-material and numerical modelling of their behaviour.
This type of modelling is very important when one is faced with difficult soils, for example quick clays in Scandinavia and Canada, or soft marine clays in deep waters.
