Preface
A knowledge of the mechanical behaviour of both naturally occurring materials such as soils and rocks, and artificial materials, such as concrete and industrial granular
matter, is of fundamental importance to their proper use in engineering and scientific applications. The research activities in this broad area of applied mechanics have
attracted scientists and engineers with a variety of backgrounds ranging from physics to civil engineering. For simulating the mechanical behaviour of the cohesive
granular materials considered, two different frameworks of modelling and analysis have emerged. On the one hand, continuousbased models and, on the other hand,
discrete particle methods, respectively “Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling” are successfully applied to cohesive frictional materials. In addition the
homogenization strategies are used to link the microscopic models to equivalent continuum models.
This volume contains the contributions to the 2nd International Symposium on “Continuous and Discontinuous Modelling of CohesiveFrictional Materials, CDM
2004” as organised by the research group “Modelling of CohesiveFrictional Material”. This research group was established in May 1998 with the full support of the
German Science Foundation (DFG) for a period of 3 years and renewed for a second period of an additional 3 years. Four different institutes of the University of
Stuttgart currently participate in the research group, namely
● Institute of Applied Mechanics (Civil Engineering) (Prof. W.Ehlers);
● Institute of Geotechnical Engineering (Prof. P.A.Vermeer);
● Institute of Structural Mechanics (Prof. E.Ramm);
● Institute for Computational Physics (Prof. H.J.Herrmann).
The research group focuses on the development of a multilevel approach for the modelling of cohesive frictional materials. Within this framework, the main research
areas can be found in the enhancement of both modelling strategies, the discrete one and the continuous one with an emphasis on the transition between these
approaches.
After two years of the second research period and considering the lively interest raised by the 1st symposium of the research group, it was decided to organise this
2nd International Symposium. For doing so, we obtained support from the German Science Foundation (DFG) and the EU research and training network “Degradation
and Instabilities in Geomaterials with Application to Hazard Mitigation” (DIGA). We are grateful for the sponsoring of the former and the support of the latter
organisation. The success of this symposium largely results from the efforts of a small organising committee within our research group, namely
● Dr. rer.nat. R.GarcíaRojo, Institute for Computer Physics;
● Dipl.Ing. U.Vogler, Institute of Geotechnical Engineering;
● Dipl.Ing. S.Wenz, Institute of Applied Mechanics (Civil Engineering).
We would like to thank the organising committee for the work in preparing and coordinating this meeting of researchers. They invested their time and energy to
guarantee a successful meeting for the participants. Most of them came from Europe, but some of them came from overseas. The highlights of the symposium was a
series of lectures of outstanding speakers. International experts in targeted research areas lectured on current developments and problems in the numerical modelling of
cohesive frictional materials and provided a deeper understanding of the microscopic and macroscopic description of geomaterials. We are grateful for their efforts to
prepare and present their lectures. Their contributions are published in this proceedings volume. This book will prove
