TNO DIANA BV is pleased to announce the International Geotechnical Seminar "Geotechnical Advances in Urban Renewal: Analysis & Design".  

This will be in held at Imperial College, London on 20 April 2010, the Seminar is free of charge to delegates and therefore there are only a limited number of places available, these will be awarded on a first come, first serve basis. 

Confirmed Speakers are as follows:

  1. Dr Subhamoy Bhattacharya (University of Bristol):  Simplified dynamic soil-structure interaction analysis.  
  2. Dr Andrew Bond (Geocentrix/Geomantix):  Eurocode 7:  the more things remain the same, the more things change!
  3. Professor George Exadaktylos (Technical University of Crete):  Spatial estimation of geotechnical parameters for numerical tunnelling simulations and TBM performance models.
  4. Mr Darin Kruse (Cobalt Construction Company):  Large diameter segmentally lined shafts.   
  5. Mr Alexander Nikolic (Buro Happold): The tale of stability and serviceability  
  6. Professor Kenichi Soga (Cambridge University):  Foundation optimisation and its application to pile reuse.   
  7. Professor Fulvio Tonon (University of Texas at Austin):  Application of the ADECO (Analysis of COntrolled DEformations) in urban tunnelling; case histories.  
  8. Dr Hoe Yeow (Arup Geotechnics):  Do Eurocodes make a difference?  - in soft ground tunnel design.  
  9. Dr Kurt Zeidler (Gall Zeidler Consultants LLC):  Soft ground tunnelling, NATM/SCL, special applications and methods.

This international seminar will bring together consultants, contractors, geotechnical engineers, and scholars in the geotechnical & tunnel engineering field. It provides a forum for the presentation of a broad spectrum of “State-of-the-Practice” on analysis and design in urban renewal topics. Please join us for what promises to be an interesting and informative program.

Who Should Attend:  All  professionals and students who are involved in geotechnical and tunnel engineering analysis, design, construction and research.
