Dear Listmembers,
GEO-SLOPE International Ltd. is pleased to announce the dates for our 2nd
Annual GEO-SLOPE Workshop to be held in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on April
8, 9 and 10th, 2002.
This workshop is designed for anyone involved in utilizing or interpreting
GEO-SLOPE software products, including junior and senior geotechnical
engineers, hydrologists, soil scientists, project managers, consultants,
and government agency representatives dealing with geotechnical
engineering. The three-day workshop has been designed to benefit virtually
any geotechnical engineer, regardless of numerical modelling experience.
Day one will educate participants through a series of lectures,
presentations and demonstrations. Expert and professional lecturers will
review the fundamentals of geotechnical engineering and will provide
guidance regarding the pleasures and pitfalls of numerical modelling.
On Day two, the workshop will split into two sessions. Participants can
choose to continue attending lecture sessions for all or a portion of the
day. Those participants who are eager (or keen) can start putting their
knowledge to work in a designated computer area working through multi-
lesson workbooks under the guidance of GEO-SLOPE personnel.
On Day three, all participants will be involved with hands-on computer
work, setting up and solving problems to help reinforce new concepts and
to gain as much experience as possible working with the various features
of the software.
Whether you wish to become an expert modeler in a specific GEO-SLOPE
application or are learning to use a new one, this workshop is designed
for you. Throughout the workshop, a separate area will be maintained where
you can dialogue with GEO-SLOPE personnel on any GEO SLOPE software
package including our latest Version 5 releases, Seep3D, QUAKE/W and our
new 2D flux boundary seepage model. We are also encouraging participants
to bring and present brief case histories where GEO-SLOPE products have
been used around the world.
