Construction in Geotechnical Engineering
This volume comprises select papers presented during the Indian Geotechnical Conference 2018. This volume discusses construction challenges and issues in geotechnical engineering. The contents cover foundation design and analysis, issues related to geotechnical structures, including dams, retaining walls, embankments and pavements, and rock mechanics and construction in rocks and rocky environments. Many of the papers discuss live case studies related to important geotechnical engineering projects worldwide, providing useful insights into the realistic designs and constructions. This volume will be of interest to students, researchers and practitioners alike.
Research and Innovation for Sustainable Development Goals
Almost immediately after the UN Secretary-General called for a Decade of Action to deliver Sustainable Development Goals at the SDG Summit of 2019, the world faced massive COVID-19 induced disruptions at the cost to the global economy. To accelerate progress in the SDGs, the decade of 2020-2030 requires research, innovations, and commitments of various stakeholders at all levels – locally, nationally, and globally. This book contributes to the action agenda by focusing on India's opportunities and challenges, emphasizing India's northeast. Many countries have taken significant actions toward realizing the SDG mission and vision. However, due to a lack of knowledge, research, and innovation, there is a considerable disparity in the countries' actions. Few developed countries have made significant progress in realizing the SDGs, while many developing countries struggle. This book brings together diverse views on various domains of SDGs, providing a sub-national framework for addressing the gaps and meeting the goals.
Soil Behavior and Characterization of Geomaterials
This book comprises the select peer-reviewed proceedings of the Indian Geotechnical Conference (IGC) 2021. The contents focus on Geotechnics for Infrastructure Development and Innovative Applications. The book covers topics related to soil behavior and characterization of geomaterials, geotechnical, geological, and geophysical investigation of special topics such as behavior of unsaturated soils, offshore and marine geotechnics, remote sensing and GIS, instrumentation and monitoring, retrofitting of geotechnical structures, reliability in geotechnical engineering, geotechnical education, codes and standards, among others. This volume will be of interest to those in academia and industry.
GeoVadis
This book contains a prolific compilation of research on geotechnical engineering presented at the First Geotech Asia International Conference (GAIC 2025). The papers reflect dynamic engagement of researchers, engineers, and professionals from all over Asia to offer insights into ongoing developments and applied problem-solving. This publication brings together contributions across 19 technical themes, including cold region geotechnics, deep excavations, earthquake engineering, foundation systems, and underground construction. It also delves into artificial intelligence and machine learning applications, environmental and transportation geotechnics, site characterisation, slope stability, embankments and dams, and ground improvement techniques. It is intended for academics, practising engineers, consultants, contractors, industry professionals, government authorities, and students involved in geotechnical research, education, and design and implementation.

Theory of Elasticity
Theory of Elasticity provides a modern and integrated treatment of the foundations of solid mechanics as applied to the mathematical description of material behavior primarily to serve the needs of undergraduate, postgraduate and research students of Civil, Mechanical and Aeronautical engineering. Basic concepts, definitions, theory as well as related practical applications are discussed in a logical and concise manner. The book includes a pedagogical features such as worked examples and problems to consolidate the readers’ understanding of fundamental principles and illustrates their applications in many practical situations. An important feature of this book lies in the use of linear theory of elasticity to obtain solutions to some of the specialized problems related to soil mechanics and foundation engineering in particular.
