8、G-I) conference on Geotechnical Risk Assessment and Management. GeoRisk 2011 is the first G-I specialty conference held in this field since the 1996 “Uncertainty in the Geologic Environment: from Theory to Practice” conference presented in Madison, Wisconsin. Uncertainties in the geologic environmen
9、t, and their effects, are well recognized by geotechnical engineers. Use of higher factors of safety in geotechnical practice than in other disciplines is a reflection of the greater uncertainties the geotechnical engineers face. In his 1965 Terzaghi Lecture, Arthur Casagrande introduced the concept
10、 of “calculated risk” as a means for accounting for these uncertainties in design. This concept was further elaborated by Robert V. Whitman in his 1981 Terzaghi Lecture on “evaluating calculated risk” and by Norbert R. Morgenstern in his Casagrande Lecture in 1995 on “managing risk.” Over the past f
11、ew decades, geotechnical engineers have become increasingly aware of the need and benefits of risk assessment and management in geotechnical engineering, as well as of the need to effectively communicate risk among and between engineers, clients, regulatory agencies, and the public. Risk assessment
12、and management is also a critical aspect of geotechnical practice from perspective of private industry. This Geotechnical Special Publication contains peer-reviewed technical papers that address such issues, covering new and continuing work on geohazard mitigation, uncertainty modeling, and risk ass
13、essment and management in all fields of geotechnical engineering from theory to practice. Held in Atlanta, Georgia, on June 26-28, 2011, this GeoRisk 2011 conference was initially proposed by C. Hsein Juang of the G-I Technical Committee on Risk Assessment and Management and approved by the G-I Conf
14、erence Coordination Committee (CCC) in April 2008. Steve Kramer was appointed as the CCC liaison to the Organizing Committee of the Conference, which included C. Hsein Juang (Chair), Kok-Kwang Phoon and Glenn Rix (Co-Chairs), Gordon A. Fenton, Edward Glynn, Russell A. Green, D.V. Griffiths, Anand Pu
15、ppala, and Xiong “Bill” Yu. In addition to papers submitted in response to the Call for Papers, the conference proceedings also includes the keynote lectures delivered by the following world renowned experts: “Risk of Limit-Equilibrium Failure of Long Earth Slopes: How it Depends on Length” by Erik
16、Vanmarcke “Development of a Risk-based Landslide Warning System” by Wilson Tang “Unresolved Problems in Geotechnical Risk and Reliability” by John Christian and Gregory Baecher “Learning to Live with Geohazards: From Research to Practice” by Suzanne Lacasse and Farrokh Nadim “Geo-Risks in the Busine
17、ss Environment” by William Brumund “The Practical Application of Risk Assessment to Dam Safety” by Gregg Scott All papers, both “submitted” and “keynote” papers, were reviewed following the same procedures and using the same technical standards of practice of the Geo-Institute of the American Societ
18、y of Civil Engineers. More than 260 abstracts and 155 papers were received in response to the Call for Papers. All papers were subject to a peer review process coordinated by the various session organizers and supervised by the conference editors. Two positive reviews were required for acceptance an
19、d two negative reviews were required for exclusion. Standard editorial review forms (online version) were applied to maintain uniform technical standards of the papers. As a result, 127 papers were accepted for presentations at the conference and published in this Geotechnical Special Publication. T
20、he editors expect that diverse assortment of papers written by a distinguished group of national and international authors will be both stimulating and inspiring to their readers. The papers are eligible for discussion in the Journal of Geotechnical and Geo-environmental Engineering and for ASCE awa
21、rd nominations. A publication of this quality would not have been possible without the dedication and professionalism of the session organizers and paper reviewers, the names of which appear in our subsequent acknowledgment. For those additional reviewers who were inadvertently omitted, we offer our
22、 sincere apologies. We wish to acknowledge the marvelous efforts of the invited keynote speakers, authors, reviewers, and session organizers for their significant contributions. We also wish to extend our special thanks to the organizers and panelists of the three important discussion panels, “Impac
23、t of Public Policy on Risk” “The Future of Risk, Reliability, and Probabilistic Methods in Geotechnical Engineering” “Geotechnical Business Risk” The first panel on “Impact of Public Policy on Risk” was organized by Robert B. Gilbert and its panelists included Joe D. Manous, Marty McCann, Jr., and B
24、rian Pallasch. The second panel on “The Future of Risk, Reliability, and Probabilistic Methods in Geotechnical Engineering” was organized by John T. Christian and Gregory B. Baecher and its panelists included Gregory B. Baecher, William Roberds, and Robert C. Patev. The third panel on “Geotechnical
25、Business Risk” was organized by Todd H. Rees and its panelists included Michael Davis, Roger Jinks, Alan J. Krause, W. Allen Marr, and William F. Brumund. We also wish to convey our sincere gratitude to Steve Kramer, the CCC liaison to the Organizing Committee of the GeoRisk 2011 Conference, and the
26、 ASCE/G-I staff especially Elaine Watson, Robert Schweinfurth, Sean Scully, Lauren Tighe and Helen Cook for their coordination and enthusiastic support to this conference. All of the submission activities of the papers for this conference were managed online by MIRA SMART and we wish to express our
27、thanks to Patrick Driscoll for his unceasing effort. The editors also wish to acknowledge the assistance of Ms. Kate Gunberg of Virginia Tech and Ms. Donna Dickert at ASCE Geo-Institute in the final production of this Geotechnical Special Publication.
