Rock Mechanics and Engineering Geology in Volcanic Fields includes keynote lectures and papers from the 5th International Workshop on Rock Mechanics and Engineering Geology in Volcanic Fields (RMEGV2021, Fukuoka, Japan, 9-10 September 2021). This book deals with challenging studies related to solving engineering issues around volcanic fields, including:
- Volcanic geology, disasters and their mitigation
- Resources and energy in volcanic fields
- Mechanical behavior of volcanic rocks and soils
- Groundwater and environmental problems in volcanic fields
- Geotechnical engineering in volcanic fields
Rock Mechanics and Engineering Geology in Volcanic Fields is of great interest to civil engineers and engineering geologists working in the areas of rock and soil mechanics, geotechnical engineering, geothermal energy, engineering geology, and environmental science.
