Naslov ENG: ”Experiences with ground improvement solutions to mitigate liquefaction risks”

Životopis ENG: Kyle Rollins received his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley. After working as a geotechnical consultant, he joined the Civil Engineering faculty at BYU in 1987. His research has involved geotechnical earthquake engineering, deep foundation behavior, bridge abutments, collapsible soils, and soil improvement techniques. He has published over 190 technical papers and supervised over 130 graduate students. He was recognized as the engineering educator of the year by the Utah State Engineers Council and received a Governor’s Award for Science and Technology in 2017. ASCE has recognized his work with the Huber research award, the Wellington prize, and the Wallace Hayward Baker Award. In 2009, he was the Cross-Canada Geotechnical lecturer for the Canadian Geotechnical Society and in 2013 he received the Jorj Osterberg Award for innovation in foundation testing from the Deep Foundation Institute. He was a consultant to the New Zealand Earthquake Commission for ground improvement trials following the sequence of earthquakes in Christchurch.  He was the committee chair for the US GeoInstitute Technical Committee on Soil Improvement.

Životopis HR: Kyle Rollins je doktorirao na Kalifornijskom sveučilištu u Berkeleyu. Nakon što je radio kao geotehnički konzultant, pridružio se Građevinskom fakultetu na BYU 1987. Njegovo istraživanje uključivalo je geotehničko potresno inženjerstvo, ponašanje dubokih temelja, upornjake mostova, kolapsibilna tla i metode poboljšanja tla. Objavio je preko 190 radova i bio mentor na preko 130 diplomskih radova. Vijeće inženjera države Utah proglasilo ga je predavačem godine u području inženjerstva, a 2017. dobio je Guvernerovu nagradu za znanost i tehnologiju. ASCE je odao priznanje njegovom radu nagradom za istraživanje Huber, nagradom Wellington i nagradom Wallace Hayward Baker. Godine 2009. bio je među-kanadski geotehnički predavač za Kanadsko geotehničko društvo, a 2013. primio je nagradu Jorj Osterberg za inovaciju u ispitivanju temelja od Instituta za duboko temeljenje. Bio je konzultant Povjerenstva za potrese Novog Zelanda za ispitivanja poboljšanja tla nakon niza potresa u Christchurch-u. Bio je predsjednik tehničkog odbora US GeoInstituta za poboljšanje tla.
