About this book

A Unified Hardening Constitutive Theory for Soils: Fundamentals of Plasticity for Geomaterials provides a unified hardening (UH) theory capable of uniformly describing the behaviors of both sand and clay. The models developed within the UH theory framework are characterized by their simplicity and efficiency, requiring only a few parameters that have clear physical meanings. The book not only deepens the theoretical understanding of soil mechanics and related fields but also provides a practical reference for a wide range of civil engineering and geotechnical applications.The insights and outcomes presented are important in terms of advancing theoretical knowledge and facilitating practical engineering solutions. - Provides a comprehensive description of soil mechanics properties, assisting professionals in civil and geotechnical engineering gain a thorough understanding of soil behavior - Explains the theoretical framework of soil plasticity, laying the foundation for professionals to understand and establish constitutive models - Includes a detailed theoretical framework for the unified description of the mechanical behavior of sand and clay, known as the UH theory, providing researchers in constitutive modeling with research directions and foundations - Provides detailed explanations of the numerical implementation and engineering applications of relevant constitutive models, thereby helping engineers in their work
