Exploring the Impact of Physical Modelling on Land Subsidence in Geotechnical Engineering
Exploring the Impact of Physical Modelling on Land Subsidence in Geotechnical Engineering
Land subsidence is a challenge in various countries. Various infrastructures, historical buildings, heritage sites, and other structures are facing the new challenge of land subsidence. Most researchers in geology, remote sensing, geodesy, hydrology, and related fields are conducting various studies and projects on land subsidence. They are measuring and predicting land subsidence in different countries. This is one step in addressing land subsidence. The second step is finding solutions for using subsided areas for the building industry, construction, agriculture, and other purposes. In this context, a few researchers have conducted various physical modeling studies in different countries. In this research, the role of physical modeling of land subsidence in geotechnics is reviewed. The role of geotechnical engineering is very important in the treatment of land subsidence. The development of ground improvement techniques or new deep foundation methods for protecting various structures must be tested in physical modelling and numerical simulations. According to the literature review, this approach is necessary for advancing land subsidence management and geotechnical engineering.
