Soil Mechanics Through Project-Based Learning

Beschreibung

This book covers all significant topics in soil mechanics and slope stability analysis. Each section is followed by several review questions and project-based assignments to scaffold their learning, real field and laboratory data including boreholes and test results so that the reader can experience what geotechnical engineering practice is like.

Autor

Dr Ivan Gratchev is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Engineering & Built Environment, Griffith University, Australia. His research interests are in geotechnical aspects of landslides, soil liquefaction, and rock mechanics. He has published numerous research articles in leading international journals and international conferences. During his academic career, Dr Gratchev has taught several geotechnical courses (including soil mechanics, rock mechanics and geotechnical engineering practice) using a project-based approach. His teaching achievements were recognised by his peers and students through a number of learning and teaching citations and awards. Dong-Sheng Jeng is a professor at School of Engineering & Built Environment, Griffith University, Australia. His main research interests include coastal and ocean modelling, offshore geotechnics, porous flow, groundwater hydrodynamics, Artificial neural network and offshore wind energy. Alongside his research, he has authored or co-authored more than 250 journal articles and is an associate editor for a number of journals in the fields. Associate Professor Erwin Oh is the Director International for Griffith Sciences at Griffith University. He is also an Associate Professor in Geotechnical Engineering. He completed his Bachelor of Engineering and Master of Engineering degrees in Taiwan, and he was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy degree from Griffith University. He teaches Geotechnical Engineering for undergraduate student and Advanced Foundation Engineering for postgraduate student. His research interests include soft soils behaviours, ground improvement techniques, and pavement rehabilitation. He has co-authored over 100 refereed journal and conference articles. Associate Professor Oh has strong research collaboration with international partners and is actively engaged with the industry.
