2nd International Conference on Transportation Geotechnics (9-12 Sept)

2nd International Conference on Transportation Geotechnics (9-12 Sept)

Description

 

The 2nd ICTG will be hosted by the Hokkaido Brach and TC202 (former TC3) Japanese Domestic Committee of Japanese Geotechnical Society (JGS). It will offer an excellent opportunity to discuss some issues essential for further development in transportation geotechnics that include but not limited to "Geotechnics for pavement, rail track and airfield", "Geomaterial, including nontraditional materials", "Asphalt mixtures and hydraulically-bound materials", "Earthworks for transportation facilities", "Application of geosynthetics", "Laboratory testing and in-situ testing", "Modeling and numerical simulations", etc.

 

This conference will comprise parallel sessions over a 3-day period, including keynote lectures, oral presentations and discussion. Several workshops, relating to intelligent compaction technologies and geotechnical challenges for transportation geotechnics in extreme climates and in rail track and its transitional zones, are also planned on the previous day.
