The new Narrows Bridge was built just 200 feet south of the existing bridge. Complex stratigraphy, diverse topography, fault-zones, landslide-prone slopes, contaminated soils and endangered species.

Adel Hanna: “When buildings collapse or lean, the problem usually isn’t the concrete. The problem is the ground.” Geotechnical engineers focus on the design and construction of foundations — among ...

Limit analysis has emerged as a fundamental approach in geotechnical engineering, providing robust methodologies to assess the stability and ultimate load-carrying capacity of soil–structure systems.

Research areas: Geotechnical Engineering, Soil-structure interaction, Bearing and uplift capacities of pile foundations, Pull-out capacity of plate and helical anchors, Performance of shell type ...

Multi-sensor data fusion, site characterization & monitoring, application of novel sensing technology to geotechnical & geo-environmental engineering; finite element modeling; artificial neural ...

Offshore wind energy has emerged as a pivotal contributor to the global renewable energy portfolio. Central to this technology is the development of robust foundation systems that can reliably support ...

I grew up in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, a small French-speaking town in Québec, Canada. In Québec, almost all the electricity (close to 97%) comes from hydroelectricity due to its extensive freshwater ...

Our research group is dedicated to advancing geotechnical engineering through the development of cutting-edge models and rigorous material testing, contributing to a deeper understanding of soil ...

Our graduate students come from diverse backgrounds; a BS or MS in Civil Engineering with emphasis in Geotechnical Engineering and Geomechanics is not necessary to apply. Before taking graduate ...

Patna: The three-day international conference on "Advancements in structural and geotechnical engineering" (ASAGE'25), organised by the department of civil and environmental engineering at IIT Patna, ...
