  abstract: In this edited book various novel approaches to problems of modern civil engineering are demonstrated. Experts associated within the Lagrange Laboratory present recent research results in civil engineering dealing both with modelling and computational aspects. Many modern topics are covered, such as monumental dams, soil mechanics and geotechnics, granular media, contact and friction problems, damage and fracture, new structural materials, and vibration damping –presenting the state of the art of mechanical modelling and computational issues in civil engineering.
  table of contents: Monumental Dams -- Approach of Mechanical Behaviour and Rupture of Cohesive Granular Media. Validation on a Model Medium -- Phase Change of Volatile Organic Compounds in Soil Remediation Processes -- Thermo-mechanical Behaviour of a Soil.
