The Introduction of the Special Issue

Numerical methods play an important role in Science and Engineering. The aim of this special issue is to report and published the latest progress of numerical methods in geomechanics/geosciences. The theoretical development and application of both continuum-based like FEM, FVM, FDM and mesh-free/particle-based methods including MPM, DEM, SPH, LBM are encouraged to submit to this special issue.

The Lead Guest Editor

Min Wang

Dr. Min Wang is a research associate in Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). He started his PhD in the University of Birmingham in Sept. 2012, and obtained PhD at Swansea university in Oct. 2015. Then, Dr Wang did two and half years research in computational geomechanics as an analysis developer at Rockfield Software Ltd before moving to LANL. His research interests include 1) Computational mechanics, like FEM, DEM, LBM, combined FEMDEM; 2) Mechanical-seepage-mass coupling, hydraulic fracture and sand production in petroleum engineering; 3) Experimental and theoretical geomechanics.
