Mission & Interests
Goals: The Institute of Geotechnics of Slovak Academy of Sciences (IGT SAS) is a non-profit scientific organization with a contributory economy form founded 22nd November 1954 by Presidium of Slovak Academy of Sciences. The main objective of the IGT SAS is the basic research in the fields of Earth and environmental sciences, environmental engineering, mineral biotechnologies and nanotechnologies.
The Institute of Geotechnics SAS:
• investigates continuous disintegration of the rock mass and underground constructions stability, the transport of energy and mass in the rock disintegration processes; basic research of solid dispersions origin patterns and modification of their properties by physical, mechanical, chemical and biotechnological processes; qualitative and quantitative evaluation of phase interactions at the disperse systems origin and at their spreading in working and living environment;
• applications of theoretical knowledge from presented areas for industry
