The authors’ latest research findings, based on dimensional analyses, well-instrumented full-scale field tests, systematic coupled-consolidation finite element analyses and centrifuge tests are reported. This book shows how to systematically approach a complex geotechnical problem, from identifying existing problems, reviewing literature, to dimensional and numerical analyses, validation through full-scale testing and centrifuge model testing. The methodologies are also introduced as major tools adopted in geotechnical research.Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China,1995-6819Engineering geologyEngineering—GeologyFoundationsHydraulicsGeotechnical engineeringNumerical analysisGeoengineering, Foundations, Hydraulicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23020Geotechnical Engineering & Applied Earth Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37010Numerical Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14050Engineering geology.Engineering—Geology.Foundations.Hydraulics.Geotechnical engineering.Numerical analysis.Geoengineering, Foundations, Hydraulics.Geotechnical Engineering & Applied Earth Sciences.Numerical Analysis.624.151363Hong Yiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1062436Wang Lizhongauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254193503321Deformation and Failure Mechanism of Excavation in Clay Subjected to Hydraulic Uplift2525659UNINA
