Dr. Takeshi Katsumi is a Professor at the Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies (GSGES), Kyoto University, Japan. He graduated from the Department of Civil Engineering, Kyoto University, and obtained his doctoral degree from the same university in 1997. He has research interests in a variety of topics of environmental geotechnics, including waste landfills, remediation of contaminated sites, and re-use of by-products in geotechnical applications. He has received several awards including the 'JSPS Prize' by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. He has been a member of ISSMGE Technical Committee No.215 on Environmental Geotechnics for more than 15 years, and served as the International Secretary of the Japanese Geotechnical Society (JGS) from 2014 to 2018.
This volume presents recent advances and developments taking place in geotechnical aspects of natural disaster mitigation and management. The chapters of this book are based on the invited lectures delivered by eminent researchers at the Third Indo-Japan Workshop on Geotechnics for Natural Disaster Mitigation and Management. This book will be a useful reference for academicians, researchers, practicing professionals and, especially, students of the geotechnical fraternity.
