The adoption and integration of information technologies in practice and academia has had significant impact on all aspects of the field of geotechnical engineering including field characterization, laboratory characterization, numerical simulation, data management, subsurface visualization and geotechnical education. The 300 papers contained in the GeoCongress 2006 CD ROM proceedings showcase recent advancements in all geo-applications as a result of the adoption of information technologies, and explore future opportunities for the geo-industry. Topics include: sensing methods and devices; measurement of soil properties; advanced sensing and monitoring techniques for earthwork QA/QC; applications of X-ray computed tomography; sensing and data management tools for pavement systems; monitoring and control of deep foundation construction; innovations in retaining structure construction; soil structure--contact and interaction; analysis and uncertainty in wave testing; geostatistics: applications and visualizations; data management standards; data management systems and applications; GIS based site characterization and geohazard analysis; neural networks modeling for geotechnical systems; uncertainty in probabilistic seismic hazard analysis; numerical modeling and analysis: soil and rock behavior; modeling and control of deep foundation construction; large scale computations and simulations; probabilistic modeling and design; multi-scale earthquake modeling; blast effects on below-grade walls and underground structures; modeling of complex deep foundation systems; engineered earth structures; numerical modeling and analysis for pavement systems; earth retaining structures: intelligent design; modeling and characterization of deep soil cement; modeling of soil improvement; simulations for education and training; imaging based quantification; and 3-D visualization.

This book presents a one-stop reference to the empirical correlations used extensively in geotechnical engineering. Empirical correlations play a key role in geotechnical engineering designs and analysis. Laboratory and in situ testing of soils can add significant cost to a civil engineering project. By using appropriate empirical correlations, it is possible to derive many design parameters, thus limiting our reliance on these soil tests. The authors have decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, as professional engineers or researchers. The objective of this book is to present a critical evaluation of a wide range of empirical correlations reported in the literature, along with typical values of soil parameters, in the light of their experience and knowledge. This book will be a one-stop-shop for the practising professionals, geotechnical researchers and academics looking for specific correlations for estimating certain geotechnical parameters. The empirical correlations in the forms of equations and charts and typical values are collated from extensive literature review, and from the authors' database.

This volume addresses the multi-disciplinary topic of engineering geology and the environment, one of the fastest growing, most relevant and applied fields of research and study within the geosciences. It covers the fundamentals of geology and engineering where the two fields overlap and, in addition, highlights specialized topics that address principles, concepts and paradigms of the discipline, including operational terms, materials, tools, techniques and methods as well as processes, procedures and implications. A number of well known and respected international experts contributed to this authoritative volume, thereby ensuring proper geographic representation, professional credibility and reliability. This superb volume provides a dependable and ready source of information on approximately 300 topical entries relevant to all aspects of engineering geology. Extensive illustrations, figures, images, tables and detailed bibliographic citations ensure that the comprehensively defined contributions are broadly and clearly explained. The Encyclopedia of Engineering Geology provides a ready source of reference for several fields of study and practice including civil engineers, geologists, physical geographers, architects, hazards specialists, hydrologists, geotechnicians, geophysicists, geomorphologists, planners, resource explorers, and many others. As a key library reference, this book is an essential technical source for undergraduate and graduate students in their research. Teachers/professors can rely on it as the final authority and the first source of reference on engineering geology related studies as it provides an exceptional resource to train and educate the next generation of practitioners.
