| Though most predictions and engineering calculations are traditionally based on total stress approaches, realistic prediction of the behavior of soil masses can only be achieved when the model considers the interaction of the soil skeleton and the pore fluid. This book presents in a single volume the fundamentals of this computational approach, applied to earthquake engineering. The computational approach avoids erroneous predictions, and is to be used by engineers for earthquake response analysis.
