Geotechnical engineering increasingly faces unprecedented challenges associated with complex nonlinear behaviors, large deformations, material heterogeneities, intricate soil–structure interactions, and dynamic multi-physics coupling phenomena. As traditional analytical or experimental methods often reach their limits in capturing these multifaceted mechanisms under extreme environments, advanced computational techniques have become powerful and indispensable tools.
This Special Issue aims to gather high-quality original research articles and state-of-the-art reviews focusing on the development, enhancement, and innovative application of modern numerical methods across geomechanics. Key topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Material Point Method (MPM)
Coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics–Discrete Element Method (CFD–DEM)
Stochastic Finite Element Method (SFEM)
Random field modeling
Physics-informed artificial intelligence applications
Novel algorithms and computational methods
Multi-phase and multi-scale modeling
High-performance computing
Probabilistic reliability analysis
We highly encourage contributions addressing the above topics and their applications in foundation design, slope stability, tunneling, underground space development, soil dynamics, and other geotechnical engineering problems.
By bridging theoretical computational mechanics and practical engineering applications, this Special Issue aims to serve as an academic platform for knowledge exchange, innovation, and interdisciplinary integration in computational geotechnical engineering.
