Topics
Two clusters, deliberately: geotechnical numerical modelling, and the practice of building engineering software that can be trusted.
Soil Mechanics
The fundamentals everything else rests on: classification from grading and plasticity, the Mohr circle, and the arithmetic that has to be right first.
Constitutive Models
Soil constitutive models: linear elasticity, Mohr-Coulomb, Hardening Soil and small-strain stiffness, including the return-mapping details textbooks omit.
Site Data
Working with site investigation data: CPT and borehole records, correlations and their limits, automating the path from raw field data to design parameters.
