Abstract:

Proceedings of the International Conference on Evaluation and Prediction of Subsidence held at Casino Hotel, Pensacola Beach, Florida, January 1978. Sponsored by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the Society of Mining Engineers of AIME, the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, and the Illinois Institute of Technology. Evaluation and Prediction of Subsidence contains many papers covering a broad range of relevant issues related to subsidence. Topics include prediction of stress-strain behavior of clays, instrumentation systems for mining subsidence, and changes in aquifer-system properties with ground-water depletion. These proceedings will be of interest to both practitioners and researchers working with subsidence.

Subject Headings: Land subsidence | Soil properties | Stress strain relations | Soil stress | Instrumentation | Hydrology | Groundwater depletion
