| 授業の概要・目的 | By the end of the semester, the student is expected to understand the basics of soil formation, classification for engineering purposes, soil compaction, seepage and water flow through soil, consolidation theory, settlement due to consolidation, rate of consolidation, shear strength, and deformation behaviors of different soils. |
| 到達目標 | This course aims at providing a fundamental understanding of the mechanical behavior of soils including soil classification, compaction, seepage, permeability, effective stress, consolidation, and shear strength as well as problem-solving skills through exercises in gravimetric-volumetric relationships, Darcy's law, flow nets, consolidation theory, Mohr's stress circle, and failure criteria. |
