Prof. Wei Wu visited ITASCA GmbH in Germany

 

The Project Coordinator Prof. Wei Wu visited to ITASCA GmbH in Gelsenkirchen, Germany in March, 2014. During the visit, Prof. Wu discussed with Dr. Lothar te Kamp on the implementation of the high-order viscous constitutive model developed in WP1. Using this model, the creep of soil slopes will be studied. The numerical results will be compared with the laboratory results obtained by WSL and field test results by KRIS. The failure of the numerical predictions will lead back to the modifications of the numerical model.
