Elastoplasticity Informed Kolmogorov–Arnold Networks Using Chebyshev Polynomials

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 8, Page 3331-3354, 10 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Multilayer perceptron (MLP) networks are predominantly used to develop data‐driven constitutive models for granular materials. They offer a compelling alternative to traditional physics‐based constitutive models in predicting non‐linear responses of these materials, for example, elastoplasticity, under various loading conditions. To attain the

Numerical Investigation of the Influence of Interparticle Cohesion During the Shear Behavior of Granular Soil

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 9, Page 4020-4035, 25 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Interparticle cohesive forces play a crucial role in governing the shear behavior of many soils; however, quantifying this effect remains challenging due to limited microscopic insights available from laboratory experiments. In this context, the current study aims to investigate the influence of microscale cohesion on the shear response using ...

Seismic imaging of the critical zone of dolerite dykes at Cap Fréhel in Brittany (France)

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 262-288, June 2026.
Abstract In June 2023, we measured ten near‐surface seismic profiles to image the critical zone of dolerite (diabase) dykes that cut the sandstone at Cap Fréhel in Brittany (France). Seismic ray tracing and inversion are used to determine the thickness of the regolith layer from first‐arrival P‐wave traveltimes.

Neural network with signal parameters featuring for near‐surface velocity model building

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 289-299, June 2026.
Abstract This study presents a method that integrates spectral recomposition (SR) with a neural network to improve near‐surface seismic analysis. The approach incorporates SR‐derived wavelet‐timing attributes into a fully convolutional network (FCN) to enhance the characterization of shallow subsurface structures. Field evaluation was conducted using S‐

Investigation of Solution Accuracy in PFEM Simulations Using Benchmark Problems

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The simulation of large topological changes, such as those occurring in Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) and vibratory pile driving, remains a major challenge in computational geomechanics. Excessive mesh distortions render classical approaches like the Finite Element Method (FEM) unsuitable, emphasizing the need for alternative methodologies ...
