Geophysics and Beyond: A Look at Geotechnical Engineers

ce.udel.edu  Paul Favret has had a lifelong fascination with Geology, Geophysics, and the study of the Earth, in general. In fact, he has even gone a step further by writing and releasing a series of blogs on his passion for introducing readers to this fascinating world. For this post, Paul Favret discusses the job of geotechnical engineers. Assessing the ground and environment Every structure built on the ground requires the expertise of a geotechnical engineer to ensure its stability and ability to withstand external forces. The extensive and significant scope of the roles in this field of engineering is varied, not to mention exciting. For starters, there is geotechnical investigation. The site's ground and the surrounding environment should be assessed even before the structure is designed. Included in evaluating geotechnical properties are the exploration of both the surface and the subsurface, water content measurement, and soil properties analysis. Geotechnical investigat...

Notable Projects Worked on by Geophysicists

scurbatgeophysics.com  Paul Favret explains that geophysics is the study of the physical processes that shape the Earth and its environment. He mentions that, over the centuries, there have been many notable geophysics projects that have helped further our understanding and deepen our knowledge of our planet. Notable geophysics projects include Galileo Galilei using a telescope to observe and record the phases of Venus in 1609, which was one of the first observations that supported the Copernican model of our very own solar system and placed the Sun at the center instead of the Earth. Another is James Cook sailing to Tahiti in 1772 to observe and, amazingly, record a transit of Venus across the Sun. This data was used to help calculate the distance from the Sun to Earth (known as the astronomical unit). Paul Favret points out that projects have become more complex in more recent times. Here are some of them: - The Apollo Moon landing missions, during which seismometers were plac...
