Teaching

Teaching Software/Tools

ErosLab: A useful tool for the development, analysis and application of constitutive models developed to solve the modelling problems inherent in soil tests.
ErosOpt: Parallel-based Optimization platform for geotechnics.
ErosSSA: A computer-aided educational tool entitled “Slope-stability-analysis", in order to give civil engineering students and young engineers a better understanding of slope stability analysis.
