Summary
Mohr Circles are a powerful and widely used technique for representing stresses and strains in soil and rock, and for converting test data into design parameters, but they have many other uses in solving geotechnical problems. Mohr Circles, Stress Paths and Geotechnics gives a unified presentation of the theory and application of the techniques, and is the only book to examine the behaviour of both soil and rock in a fundamental and comprehensive manner. The second edition of this well estab…

Critics Review
‘A comprehensive range of worked examples is included…The book provides a clear description of the relevant techniques and the strengths and limitations of these techniques…written in a lively style, accompanied by a large number of illustrations…will be of considerable assistance to geotechnical engineers in teaching, research, and practice. It will remain a valuable reference for some time to come.’ - Applied Mechanics Reviews’ The first book devoted to this subject, this gives a unified presentation of the theory and application of the techniques.’ - The Structural Engineer
