ISSMGE and TC104

The International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE) is the leading professional body representing the interests and activities of Engineers, Academics and Contractors worldwide, who actively participate in geotechnical engineering. With 90 Member Societies and 21,000 individual members from around the globe, ISSMGE serves as the hub for geotechnical engineering professionals.

The Technical Committee 104 (TC104)  plays a vital role in advancing knowledge and practice in the field of physical modelling in geotechnical engineering. Through establishing working groups, TC104 facilitates the sharing of resources for teaching, research, and the dissemination of physical modelling in geotechnical engineering. The ACPMG is the Asian regional conference, alternating with the International Conference in Physical Modelling in Geotechnics (ICPMG). Initially known as Asiafuge, the ACPMG covers the whole spectrum of advancements in physical modelling in geotechnical engineering. The focus is not only on centrifuge modelling but extends to laboratory scale modelling and field testing. This year ACPMG will cover the Asia-Pacific region.
