Research:
PhD Research Topic
Measurement of pipe-ground interaction behaviour using instrumented field tests and geophysical methods
Supervisors
Date Commenced
20th August, 2007
This is part of the ARC linkage project for predicting and controlling pipe bursts. This project will be focus on field instrumentation of buried pipe for study of pipe-ground interaction behaviour accounting for seasonal climatic effects. And data collection of soil properties using geophysical survey method for prediciton of pipe failures.
