DLSU CE PhD Student Won Best Presentation at the 20th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering

The ICSMGE 2018: 20th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering was held last March 29-30, 2018 at Osaka, Japan. It aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering. The conference

Engr. Erica Elice S. Uy attended the conference and presented her paper entitled “Full-Field Estimation of Cyclic Threshold Shear Strain”. She was awarded the “Best Presentation”. She is a PhD student of the Civil Engineering Department and a scholar of Engineering Research and Development for Technology (ERDT). She is currently at Nagoya University for her Sandwich Program which is also funded by ERDT. The paper is co-authored by her adviser Dr. Jonathan R. Dungca, Civil Engineering Department and Sandwich Program supervisors Dr. Toshihiro Noda and Dr. Kentaro Nakai, Geotechnical Engineering Division Graduate School of Civil and Environmental Engineering of Nagoya University Geotechnical Engineering.
