Unsaturated Soil Dynamics

这个雄心勃勃的项目的主要目的是解决土木工程中非常重要和及时的一类问题，特别是在土壤力学。预计这些成果将改善民用基础设施的设计和建造。在日常工程实践中，每当建筑工地含有软土，并且在施工前需要改善地基时，都会遇到所考虑的问题。预计该项目将提供对这类问题中土壤行为的全面了解，从而为更具成本效益和更安全的工程设计提供强大的技术和先进的计算工具。

The main aim of this ambitious project is to address a highly significant and timely class of problems in civil engineering, and in particular in soil mechanics. The outcomes are expected to result in improvements in the design and construction of civil infrastructure. The problems considered are routinely confronted in daily engineering practice whenever a construction site contains weak soil and the ground requires improvement before construction. This project is expected to provide a comprehensive understanding of soil behaviour in this class of problems, leading to robust techniques and advanced computational tools for more cost-effective and safer engineering designs.
