Objective Geomaterials (i.e. soils and rocks), the most widespread solids, have an extremely complicated mechanical behaviour which is responsible for various effects such as settlements, creep, landslides, liquefaction, shear band formation (faulting) and folding. The mechanical analysis of these phenomena involves many fields of modern mathematics.
