Elucidation of Mechanical Behavior of Ground supporting civil structures

Welcome to Prof. Higo's Laboratory!

INTRODUCTION

  • Geomaterials support all of the civil structures and environments as a ground. Therefore, we need to study the response of geomaterials to earthquakes, weathering, the changes of climate etc. accurately in order to build the civil structures and maintain environments safely. Furthermore, it is important to clarify the complicated soil-structure interaction and the mechanical behavior of structures. Our research activities focus deals on one hands with constitutive models for geomateials and on the other hand with the interaction between soil and structures through experiments and numerical analyses.
