New Frontiers in Geotechnical Engineering — Challenges and Opportunities
Geotechnical engineering has evolved over the past half century from a soil mechanics and foundation engineering based component of civil engineering to a field with many subdisciplines that provide earth system information, data, analysis, design, and construction services required to meet a broad range of societal and environmental needs. The current status of the discipline is assessed, major unresolved issues are identified, and challenges that must be addressed in resolving these issues, as well as to enable development of new and better geosolutions are indicated. The promise and potential for new and emerging technologies - biotechnology, nanotechnology, sensors technology, geophysical and remote sensing methods, and information technology - are discussed.
