Welcome to the Six International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials
November 15 to 18, 2015
On behalf of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), Technical Committee TC 101, the Sociedad Argentina de Ingeniería Geotécnica (SAIG), and the local Organizing Committee, we are pleased to invite you to the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina for the Sixth International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Soils from 15th to 18th November 2015.
This Conference, is organized in parallel with the Panamerican Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, and will bring together practitioners, researchers and educators from all around the world who are engaged in the understanding of the deformation properties of geomaterials before failure, and the small strain parameters as fundamental characteristics of geomaterials.
The Conference is organized after the successful previous Symposia first set in Hokkaido 1994, Torino 1999, Lyon 2003, Atlanta 2008, and Seoul 2011.
Buenos Aires, Argentina, is a wonderful and outstanding city, recently selected as one of the more attractive places for tourism in South America due to its history, cultural events, accommodations, international and local specialized restaurants and friendly people. We hope you enjoy the many opportunities that Buenos Aires and its surrounds has to offer.
We look forward to welcome you at the International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials in 2015.
