Abstract

The boundary element method (BEM) has become very popular in the solution of geomechanics problems principally because it is an efficient numerical method for bulky solids having boundaries extending to infinity. In this paper some of the major recent developments for inelastic, consolidation and dynamic analyses are outlined. In particular, a series of realistic examples is presented to demonstrate that BEM has been developed for the analysis of practical problems.
