Annual, editor-selected “Best Of” papers from Geosynthetics International are available for free access online. Thomas Telford Ltd’s division ICE Publishing—part of the UK-based Institution of Civil Engineers—has published up to three from each calendar volume going back to 2010.
Visit the “Editor’s Choice” page on the journal’s website.
Members of the International Geosynthetics Society (IGS) have free digital access to Geosynthetics International, but the open sharing of these honors-earning papers is a tremendous service to the larger geosynthetics and geotechnical engineering field.
Geosynthetics International is a Top 5-rated geotechnical journal in the world (as tracked by SCImago). ICE Publishing arranges institutional subscriptions. If you have academic or professional libraries in your daily research or work which are not already subscribed, recommend to the librarians that they contact sales@icepublishing.com.
