Call for papers : "Geotechnical Assessment and Geoenvironmental Engineering"
Special Issues in the EAGE journal of Near Surface Geophysics (NSG) and
EEGS Journal of Environmental and Engineering Geophysics (JEEG).
Deadline for submission of abstracts: 15 October 2011.
This special issue is a joint venture of the European Association of
Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) and the Environmental & Engineering
Geophysical Society (EEGS). We invite papers reporting on:
Novel measurement, assessment and monitoring techniques
Application of new and emerging geophysical methods
Innovative data processing and visualization techniques
Modelling and inversion of geophysical data
Integrated geophysical imaging and characterization approaches
Geophysical estimation of engineering parameters
Novel and interesting case histories
Subjects can be related, but not limited, to the following topics: site
and geomaterials characterization (including non-destructive testing of
concrete), soil and rock erosion, slope stability, liquefaction
potential, infrastructure assessment, urban planning, foundations,
subsidence, collapse, compressible soils, organic soils, landfills,
buried waste, contaminated soil deposits, obstructions, unknown
conditions, undetected utilities, pseudo-karst features (utilities,
tunnels and abandoned mines), sinkholes, caves, groundwater, detection
and mitigation of leakage in dams, earthquake hazard mitigation,
earthquake ground motion prediction, bridge scour, highways and road
construction, deep mine geology and orebody delineation, ground control,
archaeological and historical sites.
Authors are encouraged to contribute high-level technical research
papers. Please inform the EAGE Editorial Office, Ms. Wendel van der
Sluis ([log in to unmask]), about your intention to contribute and provide a
one-page abstract by 15 October 2011.
