INTRODUCTION
This time, IWS-SAPPORO2015 with the topic of “New concepts and new
developments in geotechnical engineering”, will be held in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
It is my honor to be able to organize this workshop. The size of the workshop is not a
main concern, because the most important thing is that all the high-level research
achievements can be presented in a compact conference and all the participants can
listen to other’s presentation. The conference venue is Jozankei View Hotel, a very
beautiful hot spa resort hotel located at the suburb of Sapporo, the capital of Hokkaido,
Japan.
The topics of the workshop cover a wide range of new concepts and new
developments in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering in recent years. We
cordially invite those researchers, especially the young who devote ceaselessly to the
relevant researches, to attend the workshop and share the view with other
researchers.
The workshop is organized by Chubu Branch of JGS. We sincerely thank the
assistance, the encouragement and the enthusiasm from both the domestic and
international colleagues who support the workshop. We hope that through this
workshop, we can not only share the knowledge but also enhance the friendship and
add wonderful memory.
We are looking forward to seeing all the friends from all over the world in the
coming days.
