This e-book provides the lectures of the Symposium on Mechanics of normal Solids, carry from seventh to ninth September 2009 in Horto, Greece. It grants a paradigm for the interconnection of the mechanics of soil, rock, ice and snow and likewise for the interdisciplinary personality of the comparable study. as a result, the provided lectures are of primary personality and deal with the prospective interfaces and the interesting contents of different subjects.

Flow and Transport in Porous Media and Fractured Rock: From Classical Methods to Modern Approaches
During this average reference of the sphere, theoretical and experimental ways to circulate, hydrodynamic dispersion, and miscible displacements in porous media and fractured rock are thought of. diversified ways are mentioned and contrasted with one another. the 1st process relies at the classical equations of stream and shipping, known as 'continuum models'.

This is remarkable, because the anisotropy of these figures, determined essentially by Mi jk , is a calculated quantity: Mi jk ≡ ∂ 2 w1 /∂ ui j ∂ uk , with w1 given by Eq (21). 3 The Butterfly Cycle Our last example for validation is not a direct comparison of GHD to some experimental data, but rather an examination of what GHD does, unforced and uncrafted, under typical elasto-plastic deformations. It is solved numerically for stress paths in the triaxial geometry (ie. σxx = σyy , σi j = 0 for i = j, similarly for ui j ), including all energy terms given above, except C of Eq (23) that is set to 1 (assuming the yield surface is sufficiently far away).
