Osaka and Alexandria ICSMGE Proceedings are now also available free online!

ISSMGE is pleased to announce that following an agreement with IOS Press, all papers published in the 16th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering that was held in Osaka, Japan in 2005, and the 17th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering that was held in Alexandria, Egypt in 2009  are now available through the ISSMGE online library 

The online library already included the papers from the 18th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering that was held in Paris in 2013, as well as papers published as part of other ISSMGE conferences organized by various Technical Committees. In total, 3450 papers, archived by author, are now searchable online at no cost.

This major development is part of ISSMGE’s initiatives towards open-access publication of papers and more papers are expected to be added in the near future.
