ABOUT THE BOOK

Applied Soil Mechanics with Abaqus Applications written by Sam Helwany is published by John Wiley and Sons.

             The purpose of this book is to provide civil engineering students and practitioners with simple basic knowledge on how to apply the finite element method to soil mechanics problems. This is essentially a soil mechanics book that includes traditional soil mechanics topics and applications. The book differs from traditional soil mechanics books in that it provides a simple and more flexible alternative using the finite element method to solve traditional soil mechanics problems that have closed-form solutions. The book also shows how to apply the finite element method to solve more complex geotechnical engineering problems of practical nature that do not have closed-form solutions.

              In short, the book is written mainly for undergraduate students, to encourage them to solve geotechnical engineering problems using both traditional engineering solutions and the more versatile finite element solutions. This approach not only teaches the concepts but also provides means to gain more insight into geotechnical engineering applications that reinforce the concepts in a very profound manner. The concepts are presented in a basic form so that the book can serve as a valuable learning aid for students with no background in soil mechanics. The main prerequisite would be strength of materials (or equivalent), which is a prerequisite for soil mechanics in most universities.

               General soil mechanics principles are presented for each topic, followed by traditional applications of these principles with longhand solutions, which are followed in turn by finite element solutions for the same applications, and then both solutions are compared. Further, more complex applications are presented and solved using the finite element method.

               Over 60 solved examples appear throughout the book. Most are solved longhand to illustrate the concepts and then solved using the finite element method embodied in a computer program: ABAQUS. All finite element examples are solved using ABAQUS. This computer program is used worldwide by educators and engineers to solve various types of civil engineering and engineering mechanics problems. One of the major advantages of using this program is that it is capable of solving most geotechnical engineering problems.
