Asiafuge 2021 Singapore - 18th and 19th November 2021
Description
Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the 3rd Asian Conference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics (Asiafuge), jointly organised by the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the Geotechnical Society of Singapore (GeoSS). Following the success of the 1st and 2nd series of the conference in India and Japan, we hope to continue this tradition of sharing state-of-art physical modelling technologies, methodologies as well as impactful outcomes from large scale geotechnical engineering experiments.
The theme of this conference is Tackling Modern Geotechnical Complexity with Physical Modelling, which embraces the spirit of enhancing and solving geotechnical challenges in infrastructure design, construction and resilience. The highlights include sharing and celebrating advances in: 1) equipment development, 2) advanced sensors and testing, 3) novel applications, physical vs numerical comparisons, 4) collaborative research projects, as well as 5) education and outreach in physical modelling in geotechnical engineering. Young researchers session and awards has been planned to encourage our next generation of bright researchers to take over the baton of gurus in several aspects of geotechnical engineering.
Despite the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, participants would continue to be able to enjoy and participate in the conference via online while still keeping the personal touch through virtual networking sessions and technical laboratory tours by leading institutions.
More details can be found in the enclosed flyer and website link: https://www.asiafuge-sg.com/
We hope you can be part of this conference by submitting an abstract via the above website link. We also hope you can circulate this announcement to your colleagues and geotechnical community. Looking forward to your generous technical contributions.
Warmest Regards,
Assoc Prof Darren Chian (Co-Chair)
