Viable mining is the best objective

New kind of ground improvement techniques are coming up in terms of new material used for strengthening ground. i feel both ground improvement technique and geo-environmental engineering area lot scope for new and innovative research..New kind of grout also researchers looking for improving the properties of soil. Also, in geotechnical design point of view also lot more work is going on like design concept for the pile socketed into the rock. Seismic design of foundation is also an emerging area of research..ok all the best in your research..

For inside mapping of vertical section of ground to be done with electrical resistivity test, that give faster and more reliable results to indicate location of water table, hard rock etc

Karthigeyan . S Sir, Thank you for consideration of this query and your very meaningful answer.

Rajeev K Agrawal Sir, Thank you very much. This surely is some concept to ponder upon.

Bio-Geotechnology (Use of bacteria for bio-cementation and bio-clogging)

Yesterday was the defend of a Ph.D. student from Al-Nahrain University/ Bghdad. The thesis title was:

Performance of Biobarrier System in Contaminated Sandy Soil

Raid R Al-Omari Sir, thank you very much for your response and worthy information. This is of good help.

welcomed

I think that geo environmental engineering and ground improvement technique have emerging trends in geotechnical engineering

Hassan Obaid Abbas Sir, thank you very much for your response. This is very helpful.

Viable mining is the best objective

I think sustainability application in geotechnical engineering discipline and heat exchanger piles

Binay Samanta Sir, thank you very much. This sure is helpful.

Geotechnical enginnering is iportant area of research

This question does not matter. In geotechnical engineering they are always a gap to be filled. Any novelties are considered as a new trend. A good researcher is

somebody who bring something new rather than always follows the trend.

Binay Samanta & A.A Fondjo thank you very much for your worthy responses.
