3rd International Symposium on Frontiers in Offshore Geotechnics

Description:

The Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) is pleased to invite participation in the 3rd International Symposium on Frontiers in Offshore Geotechnics (ISFOG) to be held in Oslo, Norway on 10-12 June 2015. This symposium will continue the aims of the previous symposia held in 2005 and 2010 at The University of Western Australia. ISFOG 2015 will provide a specialist international forum to address geotechnical engineering challenges for those working in offshore construction, design and research. ISFOG 2015 will place particular focus on integrated studies and the observed geotechnical performance of offshore structures. Studies involving collaboration between disciplines, whilst not new, are often at the current frontiers in offshore geotechnics, and include geohazard studies for deep water developments and projects covering large areas, such as offshore wind farms.
The observed geotechnical performance of offshore structures has been a topic of discussion for many years. With ever-increasing structural optimization and greater emphasis on reliability and performancebased design, our need to better predict the observed geotechnical performance of structures has never been greater. In this respect, experience from field and model testing of offshore structures is vital. Submission of articles addressing these key focus areas is therefore encouraged.
