From the Observational Method to “Observational Modelling” of Geotechnical Engineering Boundary Value Problems
The observational method is a framework wherein construction and design procedures and details of a geotechnical engineering project are adjusted based upon observations and measurements made as construction proceeds. The term “observational modelling” is herein used to indicate methods and procedures that use inverse analysis techniques to update the numerical model of a boundary value problem using monitoring data. The article describes the main elements and characteristics of the proposed observational modeling approach. Moreover, it presents the effective application of such an approach to predict the soil displacements related to two different geotechnical boundary value problems: a deep excavation in urban environment and a slow–moving active landslide.
