Overview

The first course in soil mechanics generally introduces the fundamental concepts, principles to the undergraduate students of civil engineering.

This course "Advanced Geotechnical Engineering" goes deeper into the various aspects of soil mechanics along with bringing out the advanced theories and practical knowledge of geotechnical engineering. Each topic will be developed in logical progression with up-to-date information with reference to recent developments.

The topics cover Soil formation; Soil structure; Clay mineralogy; Soil compaction, Consolidation, Shear strength, stability of slopes, loads on pipes.

Other topics which will be covered are Geotechnical Physical modeling methods; Application of centrifuge modeling and its relevance to geotechnical engineering; Centrifuge modeling of geotechnical structures.

The advanced course material on advanced geotechnical engineering will be very useful to undergraduate students, post-graduate students, researchers, teachers and practitioners.

A number of chosen problems will be solved to illustrate the concepts clearly.
