Lecture
Geomechanics: Course Introduction
Description
This lecture introduces the course on geomechanics, focusing on the study of the mechanical behavior of geomaterials, including soils, rocks, and concrete. It covers the complexity of multiphase porous media, stress-strain relationships, and stress paths in geomechanics. The instructor explains the concepts of effective stress, continuum mechanics, and stress tensors, emphasizing the importance of understanding the behavior of geomaterials for civil engineering applications.
