Artificial ground freezing forms a temporary support for underground excavations and prevents pollution spreading in permeable soils. This guide to the properties of frozen and thawed soils covers topics such as: heat and mass transfer; engineerin...
This text comprises of 57 papers on: roads, railways and embankments; reinforced slopes and retaining walls; hydraulic applications; environmental applications; geosynthetic testing; and IGS chapter reports.
This book presents attendees ideas and experiences of the key approaches to modelling and measurement for geotechnical engineering as discussed at the recent symposium. It includes information on geomechanical problems and scale appreciation.
Ecuador's glaciers are situated close to the Equator in South America and thus can be considered to be among the best examples of continental tropical glaciation. Originally published in 1981.
This reference list contains approximately 750 entries and provides a review and synthesis of data on the Mesozoic and Tertiary rocks of southern Africa, seen in the context of Gondwana fragmentation.
