Soil Resources Engineering Laboratory (SREL)
Soil Resources Engineering Laboratory (SREL)
deals with geotechnique, construction materials, water and environment
in Rural Engineering. The mission of SREL is to protect nature and
its biodiversity for the benefit of humanity by development of
new construction material and technology using recycle of waste
aggregate from agricultural and engineering industries.The aim is to achieving
the improvement and conservation of local/regional environment
and resources as well as solid waste management and recycling.
Approaches are concerned with the basic and applied works based
on physical and numerical analyses, field investigations and
experimentations. For example, construction materials, soil and
water conservation, environment protection, recycling and
reusing solid wastes, slope stability, ground improvement,
composite materials, soil-structure interactions, are the
current key research topics of SREL. Moreover, to figure out the
optimal condition of environment conservation and recycling
system, and to develop models for materials and disaster
prevention, applications of Finite Element Method (FEM) are also
used as important tools.
