Through funding from the EEAGrants Bilateral Relations Fund, the project "GEOCLIMAT - Geotechnical Collaborations, Modeling and Advanced Testing to face climate change", with the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP,) Oslo Metropolitan University (OsloMet) and the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI), starts with the first online meeting.
The project aims to exchange advanced knowledge regarding experimental geotechnical testing between Portuguese and Norwegian partners to improve engineering design, towards increasing the resilience of critical infrastructures against adverse conditions induced by climate change.
