Summary

Proceedings of GeoCongress 2008, held in New Orleans, Louisiana, March 9-12, 2008. Sponsored by Geo-Institute of ASCE.

This Geotechnical Special Publication (GSP 179) contains 135 papers covering mechanical and chemical soil behavior, testing, and modeling. This volume presents innovations on subsurface characterization and monitoring, characterization of rocks, problematic soils and waste materials, and sensor technologies. Recent developments in numerical and computational geotechnics, emerging technologies, fate and transport modeling, uncertainty modeling, and micro- and environmental geomechanics are also discussed.
