Geotechnical Engineering Problem Solving using Softwares

The desire to understand the physical world and to be able to describe it using mathematical concepts and numbers has long been a goal of scientists and engineers.  This desire has been evident since at least the time of Pythagoras.  The discipline of geotechnical engineering is no exception, as first researchers and now practitioners routinely make use of mathematical models and computer technology in their day-to-day work, trying to understand and predict their world of geomaterials.  For example, simple numerical procedures have been used for many years in geotechnical practice in the assessment of strength, analysis of soil consolidation, and estimation of slope stability. This new computing power has made possible the solution of quite complicated non-linear, time-dependent problems, boundary, and initial value problems that were once too tedious and intractable using hand methods of calculation. The ready availability of desktop and portable computers has meant that these numerical tools for the solution of boundary and initial value problems are no longer the preserve of academic and research engineers.  With the spectacular improvements in hardware have come major developments in software, and very sophisticated packages for solving geotechnical problems are now available commercially.  This includes a wide range of software for solving problems from the more routine type, such as limiting equilibrium calculations, to the most powerful non-linear finite element analyses. The availability of this powerful hardware and sophisticated geotechnical software has allowed geotechnical engineers to examine many problems in much greater depth than was previously possible. In this workshop, you'll learn its modern graphical user interface which ensures an intuitive and efficient workflow.
