Linking Geology and Geotechnical Engineering in Karst: The Qatar Geologic Mapping Project
Proceedings of the 15th Multidisciplinary Conference on Sinkholes and the Engineering and Environmental Impacts of Karst and the 3rd Appalachian Karst Symposium, 2018 During a time of expanding population and aging urban infrastructure, it is critical to have accurate geotechnical and geological information to enable adequate design and make appropriate provisions for construction. This is especially important in karst terrains that are prone to sinkhole hazards and groundwater quantity and quality issues. The State

Elements of Engineering Geology and Geotechnical Engineering in the Homeric Poems [PDF]
, 2008 This paper examines the information provided by Homer related to the fields of engineering geology and geotechnical engineering. The information is subsequently compared against archaeological findings. The Homeric descriptions of battle scenes, of ancient cities and the geologic environment suggest that an understanding of some of the geologic ...

Engineering geology and geotechnical study of Drynoch Landslide, British Columbia
, 1980 Drynoch landslide, a large earthflow along Thompson River in southwestern British Columbia, has been moving slowly for many hundreds of years and for the past one hundred years has disrupted transportation facilities which cross its toe. The slide has been noted and studied during the past century by numerous scientists and engineers.
