Conferences
The Landslide Research Team at the University of Wollongong (LRT - UOW) strives to maintain and enhance the quality of research and to gain extensive feedback.
Participation in national and international conferences helps this process and also facilitates fuller understandings of the work of other researchers and professionals. Excellent feedback about our research was received at many conferences including the following recent conferences where we presented papers and participated in other ways (eg chairing of panel, delivering keynote papers).
- The 11th Congress of the International Association of Engineering Geology and the Environment (the IAEG) entitled Geologically Active in Auckland, New Zealand, September 2010.
- The 12th International Conference of International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG) in Goa, India during October, 2008.
