Desktop GIS for Geotechnical Engineering
A desktop Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for Geotechnical Information Management system has recently been developed to assist geo-technical managers, planners through flexible application with all common desktop GIS functionalities and customized tools like Borehole Viewer and Stripchart to relate alignments and cross-sections to a specific location and/or region on the map, and create th...
متن کاملTowards reliability-based design for geotechnical engineering
This paper presents an overview of the evolution in structural and geotechnical design practice over the past half a decade or so in relation to how uncertainties are dealt with. For the general reader who is encountering reliability-based design (RBD) for the first time, this would provide a valuable historical perspective of our present status and important outstanding issues that remain to b...
متن کاملBiological Considerations in Geotechnical Engineering
The understanding of soil behavior during the last 300 years has centered on mechanical principles, geological processes, and later on, mineralogy and the relevance of colloidal chemistry. More recently, research in biology and earth science has enabled important advances in understanding the crucial involvement of microorganisms in the evolution of the earth, their ubiquitous presence in near ...
متن کاملPlant-Aid Remediation of Hydrocarbon-Contaminated Sites
Phytoremediation is an emerging green technology that uses plants and their associated microbes to remediate different environments contaminated with various pollutants. Phytoremediation, as an effective soil remediation technology, has gained popularity in the past ten years both in developed and developing countries. The main goal of the current article is to improve the understanding of phyt...
متن کاملTeaching Geotechnical Engineering using Professional Practice
It is a famous q uote that “Every structur e is supported on soils or rock, t hose that aren’t, either fly, float, or fall over”. Soils are natural deposits on which humans have no control. Soils at no two sites are likely to be the same. Even, at a particular point at a sit e, different types of soils exist at different depths. Several theories and formulas have been developed since the birth ...
