岩土工程界的几大讲座简介.doc

岩土工程界的几大讲座简介岩土工程学科是一门开始以经验与假设出发的学科，很多大牛在几百年前就建立了本学科一些奠基性的工作，因此后来的研究者为了纪念他们，设置了一些以这些有名的教授为title的讲座，成为各大国家地区岩土工程研究的一个风向标。发现坛子上岩土工程的虫子不少，可没有人总结过这方面的资料，因此作如下工作供大家分享，欢迎提出批评意见，共同交流，共同进步。1.Rankine lectureThe Rankine Lecture is hosted in March each year by the British Geotechnical Association. It is widely viewed as the most prestigious of the invited lectures in Geotechnics. 每年3月在英国岩土工程协会主办，ICE的journal，也是geotechnical engineering the highest standard journal-Geotechnique于来年的issue 1发表全文。翻阅了这么多年的，大多数都长达50多页，讲座内容是讲座人的拳头研究项目。讲座全文发表于来年的Geotechnique上面。The lecture commemorates W. J. M. Rankine, Professor of Civil Engineering at Glasgow University, who was one of the first engineers in the UK to make a significant contribution to Soil Mechanics, and is best known for his theory for the earth pressure on retaining walls. From 1961 to 1972 the lecture was held at the Institution of Civil Engineers, but since 1973 has taken place at Imperial College. In even-numbered years the lecturer is from the UK, and in odd-numbered years from overseas. Each lecture is published in Gotechnique, together with the text of the biographical introduction and the vote of thanks.郎肯讲座既然创办于英国，就会优先照顾本国BGA的人，所以偶数年讲座人会选择UK本地的知名学者，奇数年选择海外学者。拿今年，2011年来说，就选的是澳洲纽卡索大学的斯隆教授。下面是理解郎肯讲座的报告人以及报告课题。NoYEARLECTURERSUBJECT11961A.

Terzaghi Lecture 美国土木工程师协会（ASCE)于1960年创办。This lectureship was established by the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division (now the Geo-Institute) of the Society by the solicitation of gifts from the many friends and admirers of Karl Terzaghi, Hon.M.ASCE. It was instituted by the Board of Direction on October 10, 1960. I.At about yearly intervals and upon recommendation of the Geo-Institute Board of Governors, the Executive Director will invite a distinguished engineer to deliver a Terzaghi Lecture at an appropriate meeting of the Society. The lecturer shall be tendered a certificate and a cash prize determined annually by and subject to the approval of the Executive Committee of the Board of Direction based on the income from the award endowment. 由美国ASCE岩土所Geo-institute推荐人选。II.Membership in the Society is not a requirement for consideration. 讲座人不必是ASCE的会员。Terzaghi讲座报告人以及题目（不全）l 1963 Ralph Peck: Foundation behaviour of iron ore storage yards (mit Tonis Raamot)l 1964 Arthur Casagrande: Role of the calculated risk in earth work and foundation engineeringl 1966 Laurits Bjerrum: Progressive failure in slopes of overconsolidated plastic clay shales (3.

Bjerrum Lecture纪念NGI创始人Prof.Laurits Bjerrum.相信做地基承载力的童鞋对他不会陌生。Laurits Bjerrum was born in FarsB, Denmark on 6 August, 1918, the son of Chresten Bjerrum, a Danish surgeon. He graduated in Civil Engineering at the Technical University of Copenhagen in 1941. For the next six years he was employed by Dr Christen Ostenfeld, a consulting engineer practising in Copenhagen. It was appropriate that even at this early stage he should be head of the soil mechanics and foundation engineering group. During the early part of these six years he also worked in the Laboratory for Harbour Work and fundations, in the Technical University.In 1947 Laurits Bjerrum left Denmark and joined the staff of the Soil Mechanics and Hydraulics Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. His research for the thesis: Theoretical and experimental investigations on the shear strength of soils, for which he was awarded a doctorate in 1952, marked the start of a lifelong interest in this fundamental topic, culminating in a remarkable state-of-the-art report on soft clay which he was to have given at the 8th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering in Moscow in 1973.In 1951 Dr Bjerrum came to Norway to assume leadership of the newly established Norwegian Geotechnical Institute-a position which he held until his death. During his lifetime the memberships, honours and awards conferred on him were many and international. Among the honours he received were membership of both the Danish and Norwegian Academies of Technical Science, and the Royal Norwegian Society of Sciences and Letters, and an honorary membership of the Norwegian Geotechnical Society. The degree of Doctor of Science was conferred on him honoris caum by Loyola College in Baltimore in 1965, and in 1966 he received the Sam Eyde Prize for outstanding Civil Engineering work in Norway. In 1971 he received the Karl Terzaghi Award from the American Society of Civil Engineers.历届的 Bjerrum Lecture讲座人4.

Mindlin Medal. The EMD has the tradition of awarding a number of the most prestigious medals in the field of mechanics, including the von Karman Medal (of which Mindlin is a winner), the Newmark Medal, the Freudenthal Medal, the Biot Medal, the Scanlan Medal, and the Cermak Medal. About $30,000 is needed to set up an endowment at ASCE. A fund raising is being conducted.7. Peck LectureProf.Peck, R.B 是跟着土力学祖师爷Terzaghi紧密工作的3大助手，后来在UIUC做土力学教授。目前Peck lecuture在GEOCONFERENCE上面发表，具体发表journal不详。Ralph B. Peck 简介Ralph B. Peck was born in Winnipeg, Canada, in 1912. He grew up in Denver, where his father was Engineer of Structures for the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. He received the degrees of Civil Engineer and Doctor of Civil Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1934 and 1937 with the intention of becoming a structural engineer. After eight months as a structural detailer with the American Bridge Company, he attended the Soils Mechanics classes of Professor Author Casagrande at Harvard until 1939. At this time Dr. Karl Terzaghi became a consultant to the City of Chicago for the design and construction of the Initial System of Chicago Subways and Peck became his representative on the job. He was in charge of soil testing and field observations until the work was closed down during World War II, when he became Chief Engineer of Testing on the construction of an ordnance plant in Marion, Ohio. In December 1942 he joined the Civil Engineering Department of the University of Illinois at Urbana, from which he retired in June, 1974, to Albuquerque, New Mexico.Professor Pecks main interest has been observation of the behavior of earth and rock during construction and under stress. He has been equally concerned with the organization and presentation of new knowledge in this field in a form useful to the practicing engineer. He is the co-author of two books, one with Karl Terzaghi, Soil Mechanics in Engineering Practice, now in its third edition with G. Mesri, and one with Walter E. Hanson and Thomas H. Thornburn, Foundation Engineering. Both are directed to the needs of the des
