Winter School on Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment – 3rd Edition, 21-23 January 2020, Villars-sur-Ollon, Switzerland
The 3rd edition of the Winter School on Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment will be held on January 21st -23rd 2020, in Villars-sur-Ollon, Switzerland.
Geomechanics, Environment and Energy are increasingly related and contemporary themes. The goal of the school is to provide participants with a deep understanding on selected topics in Geomechanics which are fundamental for applications related to Energy and the Environment. This Winter School is organized in the framework of the international journal Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment.
More information on the program, venue and registration can be found on the dedicated webpage (https://gete-school.epfl.ch)
