A modified energy momentum tensor, in the presence of body forces, is introduced and used to construct the nonconserved J, M, and L integrals, and to derive the energetic forces associated with a defect motion within the material. The J integral is then applied to evaluate the Peach–Koehler force on an inclined edge dislocation within a large block due to its own weight. The equilibrium positio...

The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become the standard tool for the analysis of a wide range of mechanical problems. However, the classical FEM is not well suited for the treatment of large deformation problems since excessive mesh distortions require remeshing. The Material Point Method (MPM) represents an approach in which material points moving through a fixed finite element grid are used t...

Reservoir depletion and subsequent CO2 injection into the depleted geological reservoir induce stress changes that may mechanically damage top seal and wells, or trigger existing faults, creating the leakage pathways for CO2 escape from the reservoir. The role of geomechanics is to assess the mechanical impact of stress changes on seals, wells and faults. Since many hydrocarbon fields are geome...

There are many problems in which the available information is not precise enough to justify the use of numbers. In many engineering problems we cannot precisely measure the exact values of loads (e.g. wind loads, weight of vehicle etc.), material constant (particularly in bimechanics, geomechanics, wall structures, concrete structures and composite structures) and geometric characteristic (tole...
