Autorenporträt
Charles W.W. Ng has published widely on the behaviour of unsaturated soils and slopes, on applications of centrifuge modelling and on the soil-structure engineering of piles, barrettes, tunnels and deep excavations. He is Chair Professor and Associate Vice-President for Research and Development at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology; and President of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (2017-2021). Bruce Menzies founded the Queens Award-winning company, Global Digital Systems Ltd (GDS), that pioneered the commercial availability of computer-controlled soil and rock testing systems for geotechnical engineers. He invented the GDS digital pressure controller used for pressure regulation and volume change measurement in soil and rock mechanics laboratories. He has co-authored seven books on soil mechanics and geology, some of which have been translated into French, Italian, Portuguese and Malay. He co-founded Predict Ability Ltd (PAL) that formulates financial risk metrics for the impact of climate change.
