Soil Dynamics & Machine Foundations |
This topic covers all the major forms of damping of importance for soil dynamics problems, viscous damping and hysteretic damping. |
Rock Mechanics |
It is the study of theoretical and applied science of the mechanical behavior. |
Earth Dams & Slope Stability |
Understanding of the slope stability, dynamic stability of slopes of earth and rock-fill dams, slopes of other types of embankments. |
Earth Pressure |
Learn about the various issues of earth pressure and techniques to handle them. |
