Geotechnical Centrifuge Center

Physical modelling is indispensable to derive insights on the key factors affecting the performance of geotechnical systems.

Research

We specialize in geotechnical earthquake engineering and soil–structure interaction, combining numerical with experimental methods.

Soil Testing Laboratories

Our soil testing laboratories are equipped with a variety of testing devices, predominantly used for research and teaching purposes.

Geotechnical Engineering

The Geotechnical Group is one of the three Chairs of the Institute for Geotechnical Engineering, D-BAUG, at ETH Zurich and is presided over by Prof. Anastasopoulos. The focuses of the group are foundation engineering, soil mechanics and natural hazards.
