The present work deal with the propagation of a horizontally polarised shear (SH) wave in an infinitely long cylindrical structure comprised of three concentric isotropic layered media. The model has been formulated in cylindrical co-ordinates and an analytical approach is employed to achieve the closed form of the dispersion equation.

In civil engineering, the study of embankment settlement on soft ground is a vital geotechnical task in order to maintain serviceability of the road embankment, pavement, and facilities. This paper presents a study on settlements of road embankment on soft ground using vertical drains, including prefabricated-vertical drain (PVD), sand drain (SD), and sand compaction pile (SCP) on a number of packages of Hanoi – Haiphong Expressway Construction Project.

Vacuum consolidation preloading method (VCM) has been widely adopted as an effective solution for soft soil improvement over the world. Recently, VCM has been successfully applied for improving the geotechnical properties of dredged mud, which is normally dumped at reclamation area by hydraulic pumping.

Unsaturated soil behaviors characterize the failure mechanisms of geotechnical infrastructures with transient seepage conditions. Therefore, an accurate estimate of the unsaturated groundwater flow is vital in improving hazard management and assessment. This study attempts to develop a numerical scheme for 2-D transient analysis under unsaturated conditions.

The proposed research aims to investigate the influences of temperature on the water retention behaviour of deformable unsaturated soil. Volume change caused by temperature variation will be taken into consideration. This research will produce a better understanding and interpretation of thermal effects on SWCCs by providing experimental results for deformable unsaturated soils.

Nowadays, information technology is applied in large range of real life from economics, education, healthcare, agriculture to geotechnical, military, Astronomers. It helps people not only in communication but also solve complicated problems. Power of information technology is uncompromising. Trying to use benefit of information technology is always making more benefits. In higher education, on the last year at university, most of students must find internship address to practice as a required subject.

A typical geotechnical engineering project begins with a site investigation of soil and bedrock on and below an area of interest to determine their engineering properties including how they will interact with, on or in a proposed construction. Examining of soil properties, especially in shear stress, is indispensable to understanding of the area in or on which the construction will take place. There are two main kinds of the test: direct shear test and triaxial test.
