Features: This book is an academic monograph that systematically discusses the fundamental theories of geotechnical plastic mechanics. It includes an introduction, stress-strain and their basic equations, yield criteria and failure criteria, plastic potential theory, loading conditions and hardening laws, elastic-plastic constitutive relations, loading-unloading criteria, elastic-plastic theory expressed in strain space, generalized plastic mechanics considering the rotation of principal stress axes, geotechnical nonlinear elastic models, geotechnical elastic-plastic static models, dynamic models of soil, and more. The book has considerable academic depth and breadth, reflecting the latest research levels domestically and internationally.
