Third international symposium on Geotechnical Engineering for the Preservation of Monuments and Historic Sites – Napoli 22-24 giugno 2022 – Call for papers
Il 3rd International Symposium on Geotechnical Engineering for the Preservation of Monuments and Historic Sites, organizzato dall’AGI e dal TC 301 dell’ISSMGE, si terrà a Napoli, dal 22 al 24 giugno 2022.
L’evento si rivolge non solo agli ingegneri geotecnici ma anche agli specialisti di tutte le discipline coinvolte nella salvaguardia e nella conservazione dei monumenti e dei siti storici. Le tematiche che il convegno si propone di affrontare sono descritte nella locandina allegata, e spaziano dai principi generali della conservazione dei monumenti, alle indagini e al monitoraggio di casi esemplari, agli effetti dello sviluppo urbano e degli eventi naturali sul patrimonio costruito, alle tecniche di mitigazione del rischio.
Il convegno inoltre ospiterà la terza Kerisel Lecture, dedicata dalla ISSMGE al pioniere dell’applicazione dell’ingegneria geotecnica alla conservazione dei monumenti.
La call for papers è aperta e i sommari vanno sottoposti attraverso il sito del convegno, sul quale saranno rese disponibili tutte le ulteriori informazioni.

12th International Conference on Geosynthetics: Abstract submission deadline extended to February 28, 2021
The Italian Geotechnical Society (AGI) and the Italian Chapter of IGS (AGI-IGS) invite you to attend the 12th International Conference on Geosynthetics, 12 ICG, which will be held in Roma, Italy, from 18 to 22 September 2022.
The geosynthetics and geotechnical engineering community has reached full awareness over the last two decades, and the whole geosynthetics industry has focused on the sustainable use of geosynthetics in a variety of innovative as well as consolidated applications.
Hence 12 ICG intends to become the base for the next step and the conference theme will be: Geosynthetics, Leading the Way to a Resilient Planet.
Abstract submission deadline extended to February 28, 2021
The Organizing Committee of 12th International Conference on Geosynthetics (12 ICG) invites all geotechnical and geosynthetics professionals and academics to submit abstracts. For information please visit the web-site: https://www.12icg-roma.org/
8th International Conference on Debris Flow Hazard Mitigation (Turin, 26-29 June 2023)
The 8th International Conference on Debris Flow Hazard Mitigation – DFHM8 will be held at the Politecnico di Torino conference facilities in Turin, Italy, on 26-29 June 2023.
The conference will be a platform for participants to discuss the current situation, challenges and advancements related to debris flows, from triggering to deposition, passing through the analysis of their propagation dynamics and interaction with mitigation structures. Physical and numerical modelling together with real cases description, site survey and investigation will be the tools to allow sharing novelty, experiences and best practices.
With this in mind, and following the successful 7th conference held in Colorado, USA, in 2019, the Organizing Committee has set the goal to prepare a stimulating scientific program for scientists, professionals and policy makers.
Updated information on the conference is available on the conference website www.dfhm8.polito.it.

vEGU 2021 – call for abstracts – nuova scadenza
Vi segnaliamo che la scadenza per presentare un sommario per vEGU2021 è stata posticipata a mercoledì 20 gennaio. Al sommario farà seguito una presentazione online in una sessione virtuale ad aprile 2021.
Di seguito i collegamenti alle notizie sul convegno pubblicate precedentemente:
Sessione ERE 2.6 – Shallow geothermal systems for heating and cooling: geoscience and engineering approaches: link1
Sessione NH8.4 – Vegetation as nature-based solution for mitigating climate induced geo-hazards and associated consequences along slopes and streambanks: link2

vEGU 2021 – call for abstracts – session NH8.4 on vegetation effects on slope stability and climate-induced geohazards
The NH8.4 session of the EGU General Assembly 2021 (vEGU, April 2021) is entitled ” Vegetation as nature-based solution for mitigating climate induced geo-hazards and associated consequences along slopes and streambanks” and is coordinated by Vittoria Capobianco (Norwegian Geotechnical Institute – NGI), Sabatino Cuomo (University of Salerno), Dominika Krzeminska (Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research – NIBIO) and Anders Solheim (Norwegian Geotechnical Institute – NGI).
Contributions documenting, both through numerical or experimental studies, how vegetation can be beneficial in slope stability and plant-soil-atmosphere interaction in the unsaturated zone are welcome.
Specific topics and research questions related to this session are:
• How the plant-soil-atmosphere interaction affects the unsaturated zone and thus the slope stability?
• Measuring and quantifying the effects of vegetation as NBS for mitigating climate induced geo-hazards and associated consequences at or near instable slopes and along stream banks – case studies at full scale or laboratory scale
• How to ensure interdisciplinary interaction for sustainability and mutual synergies for studies containing vegetation as NBS for mitigating climate induced geo-hazards and associated consequences at or near instable slopes and along stream banks.
Further information about the session can be found here: https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU21/session/38969
Interested participants are welcome to submit an abstract within 20 January 2021, which will be followed by an online presentation to be given during the virtual session.
