Acta Geotechnica covers fundamental and applied research in geotechnical engineering, including mining, tunneling, and dam engineering, as well as geohazard, geoenvironmental, and petroleum engineering. Publishing formats include research papers, review articles, short notes, and letters to the editors.
Geotechnical engineering, also known as geotechnics, is the branch of civil engineering concerned with the engineering behavior of earth materials. It uses the principles of soil mechanics and rock mechanics to solve its engineering problems.
Gold mining in Western Australia is the third largest commodity sector in Western Australia (WA), behind iron ore and LNG, with a value of A$17 billion in 2021–22.The 6.9 million troy ounces (214 tonnes) sold during this time period was the highest amount in 20 years and accounted for almost 70 percent of all gold sold in Australia.
Engineers need to concern themselves with issues of geotechnical engineering (such as soil density and strength) and with quantity estimation to ensure that soil volumes in the cuts match those of the fills, while minimizing the distance of movement.
Offshore geotechnical engineering is a sub-field of geotechnical engineering. It is concerned with foundation design, construction, maintenance and decommissioning for human-made structures in the sea. [1] Oil platforms, artificial islands and submarine pipelines are examples of such structures. The seabed has to be able to withstand the weight ...
