TWENTIETH IGS ANNUAL LECTURE

 

Prof.M.R.Madhav who delivered the twentieth annual lecture of the IGS, graduate from Andhra University in 1960. Subsequently, he obtained the Master's and Doctor of Philosophy degrees from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in the years 1961 and 1968 respectively. At I.I.Sc., he was recipient of the Senior Research Fellowship of the C.S.I.R. and the Burmah Shell Fellowship. He also worked as Scientific Officer during 1965-1967. Since 1967 he has been with the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, where he is credited with the development and fostering of the post graduate program in Geotechnical Engineering.

 

Prof. Madhav was a Post Doctoral fellow at the University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia during 1970-71, to which place he returned for few months in 1975 as a Visiting Fellow. He was a Visiting Professor (1985-87), Visiting Scientist (1988 May to July) and Adjunct Professor (1988-1993) at Concordia University, Montreal, Canada. Prof Madhav was the first professor (1992 & 1993) to be appointed at the newly started Institute of Lowland Technology, Saga University, Saga, Japan. He returned to this place in 1997 (August to Dec.) as a Guest Professor. He also was a Visiting Professor at the University of Ghent, Ghent, Belgium, during the summers of 1991 and 1995. He was also an Associate at the International Center for Theoretical Physics, Trieste, Italy. During his stay at Saga, he organised very successfully the International Symposium on Problems of Lowland Development in Nov. 1992 and co-edited a book entitled "LOWLANDS - DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT".

 

Prof. Madhav guided more than 15 doctoral theses in India and three abroad, several masters' and final year projects. He has more than 200 publications out of which about 80 are in International and National journals. He has chaired technical sessions in many international conferences, was a Panelist in the XIII International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering, New Delhi, 1994, and was member of the Organising Committee of IS Kyushu 1992 and 1996 and delivered lectures all over the world.

 

Prof.Madhav was elected a Fellow of the National Academy of Engineering with effect from Jan. 1996, and awarded the Prof.Mehra National Research Award of the University of Roorkee also 1996. He is a Life Fellow of the IGS and the Institution of Engineers (India) and was recipient of prizes from these two societies. He also received awards from the Central Board of Irrigation and Power, New Delhi. Presently, he is the Chairman of the IGS Local Chapter at Kanpur.

 

Prof.Madhav was instrumental in developing many new courses to name a few, Settlement Analysis of Foundations, Engineering of Ground, etc. at I.I.T., Kanpur. He has organised several Intensive and Short Term courses to Teachers from Engineering Colleges and Practicing Engineers. Major areas of his research are analysis of foundations, ground improvement techniques, application of geosynthetics, etc. and in particular modelling of complex ground engineering problems. His lecture this year would highlight his contributions in this field
