About

Alexander Puzrin is a Professor and Chair of Geotechnical Engineering at Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich. His research primarily focuses on geotechnical engineering, including the characterization and remediation of contaminated sediments, the mechanics of underwater landslides, and advanced analytical methods for geotechnical testing. Recent publications reflect his expertise in assessing failure mechanisms of tailings dams and the behavior of sediment structures. He is based in Switzerland, with a phone country code of 41.
