description: Proceedings of sessions of Geo-Denver 2000, held in Denver, Colorado, August 5-8, 2000. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE.This Geotechnical Special Publication (GSP 96) contains eight papers that describe ways in which advanced numerical methods can be applied to geotechnical engineering.Topics applications of artificial neural networks for characterizing the stress-strain behavior of soil; comparisons between discrete element modeling and laboratory data from shear box tests; numerical analyses of lateral earth support problems, including retaining walls, slurry walls, and a soil-nailed slope; methods for and results of advanced numerical modeling of footings on granular soils; and the spectral stochastic finite element method to analyze multiphase flow in a random porous medium.
