Abstract

This submission refers to the request for the visit of Prof. Daniel Dias from the Laboratoire 3SR (Grenoble, France), to contribute to the researches developed by the Prof. Cristina Tsuha over a period of 45 days.This professor is a specialist in numerical modeling in the field of Geotechnical Engineering, and has collaborated since 2015 with a research project of Prof. Cristina. This collaboration has been successful, and for this reason we intend to extend it to other research projects.The requester researcher has developed experimental studies on Foundations, and the application of numerical modeling of the experimentally investigated problems would be fundamental to the advancement of these researches. Therefore, the visit of this professor would be of great contribution to the ongoing researches and to other futures investigations. (AU)
