Funded Activity Summary

Motion of objects in soils. This project aims to conduct a fundamental study of a challenging class of geotechnical problems in which an object moves inside a layer of soil, interacts with soil, and disturbs it, by developing advanced numerical and analytical methods. This project expects to determine the fundamental principles governing soil behaviour upon movement of embedded objects. The expected outcomes are robust solutions and computational procedures that will benefit government and engineers by providing safer and more cost-effective strategies for designing, constructing, and maintaining Australia's infrastructure. This should bring significant benefits to industries engaged in harvesting energy resources, such as wind farms, as well as oil and gas.
