Proceedings of Geo-Denver 2007, New Peaks in Geotechnics, held in Denver, Colorado, February 18-21, 2007. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 38 papers that describe recent advances in the measurement and modeling of soil behavior. New methodologies for laboratory and in situ testing of soil properties are presented together with advances in modeling of measured soil behavior. The papers cover a broad spectrum of soils from granular materials to soft clays. A special feature of this collection of papers is that results are presented from work on the behavior and modeling of soils at the macro, micro and nano scales.

Proceedings of sessions of Geo-Denver 2000, held in Denver, Colorado, August 5-8, 2000. Sponsored by the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains eight papers that describe ways in which advanced numerical methods can be applied to geotechnical engineering. Topics include: applications of artificial neural networks for characterizing the stress-strain behavior of soil; comparisons between discrete element modeling and laboratory data from shear box tests; numerical analyses of lateral earth support problems, including retaining walls, slurry walls, and a soil-nailed slope; methods for and results of advanced numerical modeling of footings on granular soils; and the spectral stochastic finite element method to analyze multiphase flow in a random porous medium.

Proceedings of sessions of the GeoShanghai Conference, held in Shanghai, China, June 6-8, 2006. Hosted by Shanghai Society of Civil Engineering, China. In cooperation with the Geo-Institute of ASCE; Georgia Institute of Technology; and University of Kansas. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains 58 technical paper and covers recent case histories, theoretical advances, laboratory and field testing and design methods in ground modification and seismic mitigation. Topics include: deep mixing, prefabricated vertical drains, ground improvement by granular columns, vacuum consolidation, soil treatment, ground reinforcement by nails and anchors, combined soil modifications and geosynthetics. The first section of the book covers soil improvement for foundations, suspension bridges, railway tracks, embankments on columns, analysis of composite ground, liquefaction mitigation by electro-osmosis, stone columns, jet grouting and wick drains. The second section of the book discusses the seismic performance of underground structures, bridge approaches and immerse tunnels.
