Biography
Dr Anthony Goh is an Associate Professor in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He received his B.Eng. (1st class Honours) and Ph.D. from Monash University, Australia. His teaching, research and professional practice have covered many aspects of geotechnical engineering including earth retaining structures, pile foundations, slope stability, reliability analysis and soil liquefaction. He has developed and used various finite element codes for the analysis of retaining wall systems since 1981.
Research Interests
In recent years, A/P Goh's research has been concentrated in three areas:
(a) He has pioneered, and is at the forefront of research into the use of artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies for solving civil engineering problems. His journal publications have often been cited, particularly in the area of seismic liquefaction assessment.
(b) He has been at the forefront of research into studying braced excavations in clays, and the effects of lateral soil movements from excavation and embankment construction activities on existing piles.
(c) He has pioneered research to study the stability of excavations using the finite element method. Recently, he has pioneered work to incorporate uncertainty and reliability concepts into the design of geotechnical structures and to assess their serviceability performance.
