Modeling Large‐Deformation Geotechnical Problems in Granular Soils: Integrating a Micromechanics‐Based Model With the Explicit Finite Element Method

Large‐deformation problems in granular soils are of central importance in geotechnical engineering, as they govern the performance of foundations, retaining structures, and earthworks under extreme loading conditions. Reliable prediction of such phenomena remains challenging due to the complex material behavior and t...
