Four journal papers have been selected from the candidate's published research
output, to represent his work in developing analytical methods for use in
geotechnical engineering design and analysis. Two of the papers contribute to
significant advances in the understanding of the behaviour of dry-stone retaining
walls, which will lead to greater confidence in the assessment of existing walls
and the design of new walls. The other two papers develop optimisation and
analysis routines with the aim of supporting the assessment of slope stability,
and the design of new cut and built slopes and stabilisation works.
