Landslides under Static and Dynamic Conditions
Analysis, Monitoring, and Mitigation
It is important to consider both the geotechnical engineering and the engineering geology implications of static and dynamic behavior of landslides. In studying landslides one must consider...
So Your Home Is Built on Expansive Soils

Rising from the River
The Corps of Engineers completed construction of a 20 Million cu yd dredged material containment facility in the Delaware River in 1990. The authors examine the performance of the geotextile...
An International Knowledge Database for Ground Improvement Geo-Systems
Ground improvement technologies have traditionally played an integral and important role in major geotechnical construction projects throughout the history of civil engineering and selection...
Hybrid Finite Element/Discrete Element Model for Large Deformation Geotechnical Engineering Problems
New hybrid finite element/discrete element computational code was developed for large deformation geotechnical engineering problems with granular materials. The code uses the finite element...
Automatic, Remote, Multiplexed Geotechnical Measurements with Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR)
Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) has been employed successfully in geotechnical applications such as monitoring of rock mass deformation in a variety of geometries; however, required operation...
Use of Database in Geo-environmental Engineering
Geo-environmental projects are becoming increasingly complex requiring rigorous mathematical computation and analysis of large amounts of data. This paper looks into how a geo-environmental...

Geotechnical Baseline Reports
The greatest percentage of disputes in underground construction results from subsurface conditions that are different than from what is indicated in the contract. Adding geotechnical baseline...
Geotechnical Modifications at Meeks Cabin Dam
This paper presents a summary of the geologic and geotechnical evaluation of a potential piping deficiency identified at Meeks Cabin Dam as well as description of remedial measures and/or...

Getting Along: The Geotech and the CM
The opinions of geotechnical engineers are usually respected within a consulting firm, but when such a specialist gets out in the field, he or she is seen as merely part of the backup...
Issues in GIS-Based Subsurface Data Management
Obstacles and barriers preclude an interagency GIS application for managing spatially-related subsurface data. Such a system would enable geotechnical and earthquake engineers from state...
National Geotechnical Experimentation Sites?Central Data Repository
A central data repository is in the process of development for the recently-established system of U.S. geotechnical experimentation sites. Data which will be available for most of these...
The Application of 3 Dimensional Geographic Information Systems in Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering
The requirements and needs of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in geotechnical earthquake engineering are described, and the use of such system in New Zealand is discussed. We have...
