CE 8990 - Special Topic In CE - Stability of Frictional Media

The course covers the longstanding issue of stability in frictional materials as distinguished from common forms of instability associated with fracture and damage. Emphasis is placed on the mathematical problems associated with material models based on Coulomb friction and the concept of material stability. Material is presented in a roughly historical sequence that highlights the interplay between numerical analysts and experimentalists and ends with an assessment of how frictional models should be used in practice. The course consists of lectures on the topic listed above and in-class critiques by students on classical papers that have been published on the problem over the past 50 years to the present. The course will also relate the theory to practical issues in geotechnical engineering.
