Abstract: This is a summing-up report based on 48 papers on the applications of numerical method to soil mechanics. Recently, there is a new development of coupling of finite element with other numerical ones in soil mechanics. The dynamic numerical analyses have found further application to nonlinear stress-strain relationship, effective stress, and three dimensional problems. The suitable contact element or conjunct element could be used for contact conditions in finite element calculation. It is an important direction to combine usual numerical method with probabilistic method, which has been used in evaluations of consolidation effect, slope stability, dam, seepage, deformation calculation, interaction, and the performance analyses of pole and foundation.
