Due to its complexities, rock fracturing process still poses many pressing challenges despite
intense research efforts. With the rapid development of computational mechanics, numerical …

Traditional geotechnical analyses for landslides involve failure prediction (ie onset of failure)
and the design of structures that can safely withstand the applied loads. The analyses …

The simulation of large-strain geotechnical laboratory tests with conventional Lagrangian
finite element method (FEM) techniques is often problematic due to excessive mesh …

The numerical simulation of real geomechanical problems often entails an high level of
complexity; indeed they are often characterized by large deformations, soil-structure …

In this study, an ordinary state-based peridynamics (OSBPD) modeling method is proposed
to simulate the 3D problem of anchor bolt pullout in concrete. The peridynamic methodology …

Material point method (MPM) is a numerical tool which was originally used for modelling
large deformations of solid mechanics problems. Due to the particle based spatial …

Modeling and tracking the material variables for large deformations is of great importance in
elasto-plastic solid simulation. In this study, the finite element method with Lagrangian …

This paper investigates a numerical solution of a semi-infinite mass of soil being penetrated
by a smooth and rigid wedge. Traditional methods such as the finite element method (FEM) …
