Numerical modelling of reinforced geomaterials by wires using the non smooth contact dynamics. (English) Zbl 1277.74040

Wriggers, Peter (ed.) et al., Analysis and simulation of contact problems. Papers based on the presentation at the 4th contact mechanics international symposium (CMIS 2005), Loccum, Germany, July 4–6, 2005. Berlin: Springer (ISBN 3-540-31760-0/hbk). Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics 27, 289-296 (2006).
Summary: In Civil Engineering soils may be reinforced by different structures. Wires will interest us. Mixed sand and wire, known as TexSol, may be modelled as a continuous medium with classical behaviour laws or with more sophisticated ones taking into account remote interactions.
