Laboratory of Soil Mechanics

Professor Lyesse Laloui, who heads the Laboratory of Soil Mechanics (LMS) in EPFL’s Civil Engineering Section, has been elected to the Swiss Academy of Engineering Sciences.

The grant adds up to the breakthrough developments achieved within the first 18 months of his previous advanced ERC-funded BIOGEOS project.

Prof. Laloui presented the prestigious Kersten Lecture during a plenary session at the American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE) Geo-congress 2020 at Minneapolis last February.

It is with pleasure that we present to you “Laloui’s Research Group Annual Report”, through which we will walk you through the remarkable milestones achieved by our team over the last two years.
