In 2013 Géotechnique will be holding a Symposium in Print on Bio- and Chemo- Mechanical Processes in Geotechnical Engineering.  A special edition of Géotechnique will be published to coincide with a one-day symposium at The Institution of Civil Engineers in London.

If you would like to contribute a paper to this Symposium, then please email me an abstract of your proposed paper by 30 September 2011. Submissions will be subject to two-stage review.  Initial selection of abstracts will be made by the SIP 2013 Editorial Panel.  Authors of selected abstracts will be asked to submit their papers by 1 March 2012. Selection of papers to be published will be on the basis of full peer review.

With specialist subscribers in over 65 countries, Géotechnique is the leading specialist publication in its field, of relevance to both researchers and practitioners. Top civil engineering institutions subscribe to Géotechnique and the journal is widely read in leading academic institutions, consultancies and contracting companies.  As a publishing author your work will be hosted on the ICE Virtual Library, the world's most comprehensive online civil engineering resource, and covered in major databases, including Web of Science.  You will receive peer review, copy editing, publication and 25 copies of your published article free, and your article will be available in perpetuity on the ICE Virtual Library.

I look forward to receiving your abstracts by 30 September 2011.
