Goal
To share knowledge and establish a joint research framework for future collaboration among Japan, Taiwan, and other countries on geotechnical natural hazards.
Themes
1. State of the art in the evaluation and mitigation of damage induced by earthquakes and heavy rainfall
2. Risk management and advanced monitoring technologies for large landslides and debris flows
3. Development of design codes and specifications for geotechnical seismic and extreme weather design
4. Advances in numerical modeling and experimental studies of geotechnical structures
5. Case studies on the performance of geotechnical structures during natural hazards
6. Liquefaction hazard mapping and microzonation
