A team of New Zealand-based software designers that brought digital 3D modeling to engineering geotechnics less than two years ago recently launched an upgrade to their software, which is now being ...

UC Davis' Center for Geotechnical Modeling on Monday joined a national effort in earthquake simulation with the launch of the George E. Brown Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES).

UC Davis researchers have created a dataset for understanding how bridges, bridge pilings and the soil beneath them respond when earthquake shaking causes soils to liquefy. (Getty Images) Can a bridge ...

A new study in Scientific Reports introduces an innovative mathematical model for describing how water enters and moves ...

Pile group interaction during lateral loading reduces lateral resistance. Based on full-scale lateral pile group testing, the reduction is a function of pile spacing, row position and soil type.

The rapid expansion and upgrading of transportation infrastructure, particularly roads, railways, and airport runways, are placing unprecedented pressure on ...
