Catalog Search:  CEG6018: Applied Computational Geotechnics 3
Prerequisites: CEG 3011C, CEG 3111 This course covers the use of
finite element computer methods to analyze complex geotechnical
engineering problems. Course will focus on various problems in
geotechnical engineering, including shallow foundations,
retaining structures, slope stability, and tunnels. Emphasis
will be placed on advantages of finite element based solution
over traditional statics-elastic based solutions and the
importance using the proper soil models. (A material fee of $35
will be assessed.)
