SOME OLD AND NEW CHALLENGES IN THE SEISMIC DESIGN OF GEOTECHNICAL SYSTEMS. G. Gazetas, 4-5 ottobre 2022, Benevento
Il Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell’Università del Sannio, nell’ambito delle attività didattiche di alta qualificazione previste dal progetto “Dipartimento di Eccellenza“, ha organizzato un ciclo di lezioni dal titolo “Some Old and New Challenges in the Seismic Design of Geotechnical Systems”, tenute dal prof. George Gazetas (NTUA). Le lezioni si svolgeranno in presenza nei giorni 4 e 5 ottobre 2022 (ore 10.00 – 13.00) presso l’Università del Sannio (complesso Sant’Agostino, Via G. De Nicastro 13, Benevento). Maggiori informazioni sull’evento in questo flyer. Per la partecipazione all’evento è necessaria una registrazione tramite questo link.
ReStructure 2.0 – Webinar #3 – “Seismic Earth Pressure on Retaining Walls based on SSI Principles”
Nell’ambito del progetto ReStructure 2.0 (Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions – Reintegration Panel) sono stati organizzati una serie di webinar su temi di geotecnica sismica. Il terzo di questi, dal titolo ““Seismic Earth Pressure on Retaining Walls based on SSI Principles“, sarà tenuto dal Prof. Jonathan Stewart il 13 Aprile 2023 (ore 17:00).

Winter School “From research to practise in geotechnical engineering” – 12–17 January 2020, Ascona (Switzerland)
The Winter School “From research to practise in geotechnical engineering”, coordinated by Prof. I. Anastasopoulos, will take place in Ascona (Switzerland) from 12 to 17 January 2020.
With the ultimate goal of developing innovative mitigation techniques, the international geotechnical engineering community has made substantial efforts to gain deeper insights on geotechnical hazards. For the state of practice to advance, academics need to join forces with practitioners.
The Winter School aims to bring these two groups together, to question the status quo, and to propose out‐of‐the‐box solutions. The program will combine:
a) Keynote lectures by international experts from the academia and the industry;
b) Seminars on state‐of‐the‐art numerical and physical modelling techniques;
c) Presentations by the participants;
d) Panel sessions, where the participants will have a “debate” with industry and academia experts on the applicability of their ideas;
e) Special session on start‐ups, on the process of product development, from initial conception to founding of a new company.
