HERBERT H

Herbert H. Einstein's group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology conducts research in rock mechanics, engineering geology, and underground construction, spanning a wide range of studies from field measurements to laboratory experiments to numerical and analytical models. Since 1973, this research work has resulted in thirty-three Ph.D. dissertations and over three hundred authored and co-authored professional publications on the mechanical properties of soils and rocks; analysis, design, and project management of underground structures; risk analysis of landslides; and probabilistic methods in rock engineering and engineering geology. Professor Einstein teaches courses in rock mechanics, engineering geology, and underground construction at M.I.T and has also taught many a short course in universities worldwide. For advancing the field of rock mechanics and rock engineering, Herbert H. Einstein received the 2006 Outstanding Contributions to Rock Mechanics award from the American..
