Gerne laden wir Sie zur 17. Naturgefahrenkonferenz am 6.Mai 2026 im Hotel Arte in Olten ein.   

Neben der Information und Diskussion über aktuelle Arbeitenaus dem Bereich Gefahrenprävention des BAFU freuen wir uns insbesondere aufanschauliche Beispiele aus der kantonalen Praxis, Inputs aus der Forschungsowie auf erste Erkenntnisse der Ereignisanalysen 2024. 

Die Workshops möchten wirnutzen, um uns mit Ihnen zu den folgenden Themen auszutauschen:

• Berücksichtigung des Klimawandels in der Gefahrenbeurteilung
• Vollzugshilfe Gefahrenbeurteilung
• Handbuch Programmvereinbarungen 2029-2032 im Bereich gravitative Naturgefahren

Gerne machen wir Sie darauf aufmerksam, dass die Platzzahlfür die Workshops begrenzt ist. Anmeldungen werden nach der Reihenfolge ihresEingangs berücksichtigt.

Die Teilnehmendenzahl der Naturgefahrenkonferenz istbeschränkt. Pro Institution sollte daher im Grundsatz nicht mehr als einePerson teilnehmen. Besten Dank für Ihr Verständnis und die Weiterleitung an diebetreffende Person.

Wir bitten um Anmeldung für die Naturgefahrenkonferenz 2026bis am 9. April 2026 unter dem folgenden Link: Anmeldung zur 17.Naturgefahrenkonferenz des BAFU 2026

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

You are warmly invited to the 11th InternationalConference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics (ICMPG 2026), which will takeplace in ETH Zurich, Switzerland, 8–12 June 2026!

The conference will take place on the ETH ZurichHönggerberg Campus, which is located just 15 minutes (with a direct bus link)from Zurich city center.

ICPMG 2026 aims to provide a dynamic forum for academics,engineers, researchers, technicians and students, where the latest developmentsin modelling techniques, technologies, similitude laws, and all other aspectsof physical modelling in geotechnics will be discussed.

The conference will offer an up-to-date overview of thelatest developments in multi-scale physical modelling within the followinggeneral themes:

-          New facilities, new equipment, and measuringtechniques

-          Scalinglaws and fundamentals

-         Resilient Geotechnical Infrastructure

-         Sustainability in Geotechnical Systems

-          Energygeo-structures and foundation systems

-          Onshoreand offshore foundation systems

Besides centrifuge modelling, studies based on 1g shaketable and large scale testing are warmly welcome, as well as research thatcombines numerical and physical modelling. 

For more detailed information please see:

Special Issue at the International Journal of PhysicalModelling in Geotechnics

A key novelty of the Conference is the Special Issue atthe International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics. Instead ofselecting papers after the Conference, the Special Issue is initiated inadvance, aiming to attract the best papers in the field. Through this call forpapers (please see attached), we invite colleagues to submit their best work inthe subject area. After going through a rigorous review process, the papersthat will be accepted for publication in the Special Issue will also beallocated an increased time for presentation in ICPMG 2026, thus being in thespotlight.

For more detailed information please see:

https://www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/calls-for-papers/call-papers-latest-developments-and-innovations-physical-modelling-geotechnics

Opening date for manuscript submissions: 14 February 2025

Closing date for manuscripts submission: 31 October 2025

Naturally, in addition to the IJPMG Special Issue papers,the participants will have the opportunity to submit standard conference papersand/or extend abstracts.

The call for conference papers and extended abstractswill follow shortly.  

We are looking forward to your active participation, and kindly ask you to forward the announcement to your networks.

Quote from Lyesse Laloui
Vice-president, Europe, ISSMGE
“I warmly invite colleagues from across Europe and around
the world to join us in Budapest for the 18th Danube-European
Conference on Geotechnical Engineering. Rooted in the Danube
region’s rich tradition of scientifi c exchange, this conference
has become an important forum for addressing today’s global
challenges in geotechnics. In 2027, we look forward to continuing
this legacy, uniting expertise from across borders to advance
resilience and sustainability in our field.”
