Subbase degradation: permeability and strength reductions by means of breakage soil mechanics

How exactly should grain crushing be introduced to model permeability and strength reductions? The answer of this question will be the primary objective of this PhD research, which more...

Discontinuous Discrete Methods for Solving the Multi-phase Hydro-mechanical Behaviour of Partially-saturated Soils

The goal of the project is to develop robust finite-element type solvers of the equations describing the multi-phase hydro-mechanical behaviour of partially saturated soils, hence a more...

A complete solution of the internal erosion problem for granular media

One of the most common mechanisms for the failure of Earth structures is via internal erosion, where fine particles are washed out of the material by the action of water. This proje more...
