geotechnics

He was a specialist in soil mechanics and geotechnics.

The investigation into the cause of the accident had a major impact on the development of the field of geotechnics in Sweden.

According to personal interests elective modules can be chosen in the areas of bioprocess engineering, geotechnics and thermal treatment.

Present building above potentially risky areas, on the western coast of the peninsula, is bound to draw a renewed attention to geotechnics in the foreseeable future.

Civil Engineering (3 sub-fields: bridges & tunnels, geotechnics, roads)

In 1942 he founded Soil Mechanics Ltd, a subsidiary of Mowlem which was concerned with geotechnics.

At the beginning, DSI's focus was on Construction, with a principal market focus being post-tensioning concrete and geotechnics.

Topics covered include soil and rock mechanics, engineering geology, environmental geotechnics, geosynthetics, numerical and analytical methods, computer modelling, field and laboratory testing.

Most engineering geologists also have graduate degrees where they have gained specialized education and training in soil mechanics, rock mechanics, geotechnics, groundwater, hydrology, and civil design.

NGI's core competence is within geotechnics, engineering geology, hydrogeology and environmental geotechnology, with expertise within material properties, modelling and analysis, and instrumentation and monitoring.

Coffey Geotechnics supported by AECOM were awarded the tender for geotechnical drilling services in August 2011, and drilling began on 7 September 2011.

In 1967-8 interdisciplinary courses were approved in environmental engineering (involving collaboration between scientists, engineers, architects, public health officers and industrial management), engineering geology and geotechnics, and statistics and computing.

A graduate program is offered in the fields of construction materials, transportation, hydraulics, structural mechanics, geotechnics and construction management leading to the degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.)

Vahanen offers a wide scope of services in architecture, geotechnics, building services and structural engineering, refurbishment and property management, and expert services in building physics together with environmental consulting.

Coverage includes topics from other disciplines related to this journal's focus such as applied geophysics, environmental geology, contaminated land, waste management, land use planning, geotechnics, rock mechanics, geomaterials, and geological hazards.

Professor Potts has been author and co-author of around 300 technical publications, has been reviewer of numerous academic journals and the Editor of the journal Computers and Geotechnics.

Undergraduate programmes taught are BSc Applied Geology, BSc Engineering Geology and Geotechnics, BEng Mining Engineering, BSc Renewable Energy.

Facilities for mining engineering, tunnelling, surveying and geotechnics include underground and surface testing facilities; Leica surveying equipment, a Leica/DMT Gyromat 2000 Precision Gyrotheodolite, and a triaxial test rig.

Research topics may be selected from the following list or may be arranged in agreement with supervisors in the areas of Structures, Hydraulics, Geotechnics, Highway Engineering, Transportation Planning and Economics, Public Health Engineering and Construction Management.
