E-mail: maytekin1-AT-gmail.com
Second Symposiums about problematic soils will be held within the INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF NUMERICAL ANALYSIS AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS (ICNAAM 2014). 2nd symposium in ICNAAM 2014 will take place at Rhodes at Rodos Palace Hotel between 22-28/09/2014.
The symposium covers various subjects including; numerical methods (FEM, FDM, BEM, etc.), fundamental research findings, modeling of problematic soil behavior from laboratory and/or field observations. The symposium aims to provide an opportunity for dissemination of current practice on recent research and industry developments in the geotechnical engineering of problematic soils.
The symposium welcomes contributions from all areas related to geomorphology, engineering geology, geotechnical engineering (including modeling, laboratory and field assessment, footing design and remediation techniques), soil-structure interaction, building and infrastructure problems and others, associated with the many problematic soils encountered across the globe. Such soils have and continue to present challenges to engineers all over the world. The ultimate aim of this conference is to bring together experts from different disciplines and countries to provide a forum to exchange ideas and discuss latest developments.
Topics of interest of the 2nd symposium on problematic soils includes (but not limited):
Peat and organic soils
Volcanic Soils
Expansive Soils
Collapsible Soils
Carbonate rich soils
Lateritic soils
Residual soils
Tailings
Deep fills
Dispersive soils
Unsaturated soils
Numerical modeling of behavior of problematic soils
Soil water characteristic curve (SWCC), or soil water retention curve (SWRC),
Stabilization of problematic soil (chemical and/or mechanical stabilization)
Foundation (including pavements) design on problematic soil
