th International Conference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics (ICPMG 2010)

Aim & Scope The aim of the conference is to disseminate the research and innovation based on physical modelling to research students, academics, practitioners and society, as well as to bring together geotechnicians to discuss the current state-of-the-art in modelling and design. The forerunner to the International Conferences on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics began in the early eighties with the early conference in Geotechnical Centrifuge Modelling, and were so named up to 1998, before embracing all forms of geotechnical physical modelling. Researchers using 1g small and large scale models, calibration chambers, shaking tables, as well as geotechnical centrifuges, are expressly encouraged to submit papers to this conference, and to come to Zurich at the end of June 2010 to create an inspirational environment in which ideas, innovation and technological development can be shared.
