We create content related to Geological, Geological Engineering, and Geomechanical knowledge with recordings in the field, laboratory, and exciting Geological processes and Geological Engineering information. We want to bring to you what is happening in out there in the field, laboratory, or from industry. As a Professor, Matthew A. Perras, from the Department of Civil Engineering, in the Lassonde School of Engineering at York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada began creating videos for his Geological Processes, a course in the Civil Engineer program and related content. We share our experience to help you learn about what is happening around the planet, both naturally and as we build societies infrastructure. We hope that you will enjoy our content and we are happy to hear from you other avenues related to Geological Science and Geological Engineering that maybe of interest to you!
Welcome to the Classroom Season 3 [W3TC] Introduction #geology #civilengineering #engineering
Hello, future engineers and curious minds! I'm thrilled to welcome you to the third season of "Welcome to the Classroom." Through these informative videos I wish to bring you out into the field to see Geological Processes in action and how Civil Engineering infrastructure interacts with the natural environment. Through this series you will learn how to identify the geological environment you are working in and how to use that information within the design of a Civil Engineering infrastructure project. I hope you enjoy the content and the different places from around Southern Ontario that I will take you to through these videos. I think it will give you a better appreciation for the planet we live on.

Informative video and cool channel, subscribed! 🪨
Awesome. Glad you enjoy it!
Welcome aboard!
Cool channel, I love the current updates so keep doing what you do. I appreciate your information on these topics.
I am so glad you like the Geo RoundUps.
Thanks for the follow-up..I’ll keep watching for more followup
Thanks for watching!
Very interesting
Glad you think so!
So when Iceland breaks into two pieces what will they call it?
Do you mean geological or geographically?
Great,
Thank you
Danke Schön
Merci pour vos infos . .je ne comprends que le français et l'allemand
Not push but PULL the pipe back to you ... Its called directional boring and i would know because i operated that type of machine for years!!!
Thanks for the correction.
Doesn't most low level waste become non-harmful in less than a year? If so, then why would you be burrying it?
Some low level waste is non-harmful after a short period of time but there are some long-lived low level waste components that require up to 100 years to decay to safe levels.
Very informative. Thanks for the video! The sound is fine on my end.
Good to hear! Thank you
Your recording level or something is off, I had to crank it up to 100 and can still barely hear you.
Thanks for letting us know. I am not sure what happened, but we will look into it.
thank you geo mechanic. your videos are short but very informative.
Thank you!
82 volcanos right now, that's wild
Yes. Not all are actively extruding lava but this also include those that are showing signs of potential activity.
Totally appreciate your clear and understandable sequence of volcanic activity due to the activity/behaviour of the mid-Atlantic Ridge and the effect it has on the Rekjanes Peninsula in Iceland (currently). I am better at looking at pictures than I am at scratching my head over data charts! Well done!!
Thank you very much Wendy for your lovely comment. I am so happy that we could reach you and help you understand the situation a better.
Very helpful thanks
You're welcome!
This content needs to be in everyone’s recommendations. Not a lot of people are aware what is going on around us
Thank you. That is part of the reason we started the geo round ups. Thanks for sharing to help get the word out
TY, needs more exposure
Comments help your algorithms! I appreciate your coverage!!
Thanks for that!
That was a great demonstration!
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!
This is so cool
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you again!! Well explained without too much technical jargon👍
My pleasure!
Keep up the good work
Thank you for your support!
Very brief but more detailed video.
Once the snow melts, I will take it out into the field!
What’s a geoide?
The geoid is the sea level surface and imaginary sea surface through continents under gravitational forces only.
@@geomechanic I was talking about the way that he said geode like he was from the uk or something 🇬🇧
Keep it going!!
Glad you enjoy it.
Yessss!!!!!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Great explanation, Prof. Perras! Helped me to visualize what's going on underground. And very considerate of you to delay your update out of respect for the people of Iceland! Keep them coming! :)
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for the supportive comment.
Great video Prof
Thank you.
Great video, well explained thanks!
You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
Thank you! Well explained so that even this ordinary "armchair" scientist can understand!😊
Glad you could understand it. Thank you.
Hundreds of small earthquakes north of Grindavik, Iceland, in the last four hours. Here is a good livestream to follow: th-cam.com/users/live804nPrAUAxg?si=2eTCNe0DPV-Y_l-1
What an interesting tool
Yes indeed. Like many tools in Geomechanics, it was adopted from Civil Engineering. It was originally made to test concrete strength. But works well for rock too.
Great job!!
Thank you
Great roundup, Prof. Perras.
Thank you
Great explanation and demo thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent demonstration!! It is easy to understand when we can visually see what is going on underneath the surface. Loved it!!
Glad you enjoyed it! It was fun to setup.
I love that you're so committed to building this channel! I think it's a gooder!!
Thank you. We are trying different things to see what the general audience enjoys. Feel free to let us know what content you would enjoy seeing?
As my high school physics teacher used to say: so simple, and yet so straightforward.
Yes, exactly. That is what we were aiming for - a simple explanation. Thanks!
Awesome! 👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks!!
Great work.
Many many thanks
Cool tanks. :)
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks this is a very good demonstration, easy to understand.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for providing Geology news without the irritating vocal fry that ruins other channels.
Are you a geologist? This seems visually similar at the surface but not an accurate representation of the actual ground dynamics. I expected your sand table to be much deeper, maybe with a bed of flat rocks below, and for you to pump in a viscous material that would seek a path to the surface and causing deformation during the process.
I wanted to have a simple explanation rather than a complex system to reach a general audience. Of course the real dynamics are much more complicated and reach much deeper than possible to scale accordingly in a simple lab setting.
I would think that building on the rift is not a great idea. There are problems building close to the rift and building on an island that has a rift running through it but building on the rift, even if it doesn't happen for 900 years, is not a great idea. Nice presentation.
Thank you for the encouragement. Wikipedia says that Vikings settled in the area in 934. So they didn't know about rifting when the town was built up. But it has been an important fishing town since at least the 13th century.
Iceland was created because of the rift, and the whole island can be potentially affected. I think about it like this; while sudden catastrophic events do happen, most geologic events are very, very slow. Most places on Earth have potential for disaster (floods, fires, hurricanes, landslides etc) on much smaller timescales.
I've wondered for a while, given the tectonic movement, is there evidence then, of actual expansion of Iceland on the East/West axis?
Potentially it would be possible.
Really nice simple demo.
Thank you!
I've learned so much since the Grindavik earthquakes started in November. I had thought of it like stretch marks growing on the earth's skin. This is a good visualization. I'm happy to see the bird strike protection on your buildings windows too. I've seen it work often on my home window.
Thank you.
So good. Thanks now i understand.
I am glad that it helped you better understand the situation.
Nice explanation
Thank you.
