The journal Géotechnique is hosting an event on the 27th October 2023 at the Institution of Civil Engineers in London to celebrate its 75th anniversary (https://www.icevirtuallibrary.com/page/ice-news/geot75). We wish to gather the geotechnical community to cherish Géotechnique’s past research and look forward, to future fundamental and applied research.
The day is organised around three main themes:
- Theme 1 – Soil micromechanics: from surface physics and chemistry to macro engineering applications
- Theme 2 – Bio-assisted geotechnics: effective strategy in a Net Zero Carbon World?
- Theme 3 – Artificial Intelligence in geotechnics: virtual dream or practical reality?
Each theme session will include:
- Introductory Lecture offering a multidisciplinary perspective of the research theme (Lecturers are Prof Carlos Santamarina, Prof Glyn Bengough, and Prof Darren Wilkinson)
- Géotechnique Research Lecture to cherish the past and look forward to the future (Lecturers are Prof Catherine O’Sullivan, Prof Jason DeJong and Prof Antonio Correia)
- Discussion
- Poster session (10 posters per theme)
The event programme is available here.
