Funded Activity Summary

Variational Plasticity Models and Algorithms for Frictional Geomaterials. Although the proposed project makes use of a number of advanced concepts in mathematics, thermodynamics, and numerical analysis, and in this way could be labelled 'theoretical', its main ambition is to formulate models and methods that are much more practical than the ones currently in use. Ultimately, this will result in cheaper and safer designs of both standard and non-standard geotechnical structures. The project builds on and extends the tradition which has been established in Australia over the past 15-20 years of applying mathematical programming methods to plasticity problems, many of these in the field of geotechnical engineering.
