This book was released on 1997-07-04 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of an interdisciplinary meeting which attracted participants from the fields of physics, engineering, applied mathematics, and geology. The subjects covered range from microscopic theories of friction to large-scale stick-slip motion in earthquakes, with static and dynamic aspects of granular material in between. The main emphasis is on computational aspects, but experiments and basic theoretical concepts are also covered.
