This grant, offered by the Geomechanics and Geotechnical Systems program (GEOMM), supports fundamental research into the mechanics and engineering properties of diverse geologic materials. It focuses on the mechanical behavior of soil and rock, including mechanically stabilized and biologically modified soils. The program also funds investigations into natural processes—such as hydraulic, biological, and thermal factors—that significantly influence these materials’ behavior. Critical areas like soil-structure interaction and liquefaction are also covered. Support is provided for comprehensive research methodologies, encompassing theoretical studies, advanced constitutive and numerical modeling, alongside practical laboratory, centrifuge, and field testing to advance understanding in geotechnical systems.
