Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal publishes research on physical modelling in geotechnics, focusing on experimental investigations of soil behavior and the performance of geotechnical structures. Topics include the use of advanced testing apparatuses, instrumentation, and modelling methodologies to understand mechanisms in areas such as tunnels, foundations, slopes, and earth dams. Studies often involve scaled models tested under various conditions, including dynamic and static loading, and in different soil types.
