I love listening to Prof. Ziotopoulou! Thanks for uploading this keynote. I can't wait for the roll out of a 3D generalisation of the PM4Silt and PMM4Sand models. Not just for 3D models, but being able to use regularly performed critical state triaxial testing to help calibrate the models like we do with NorSand will be so helpful. And with the new version of FLAC2D/3D becoming more and more capable and faster, it really has been a turning point in the adoption of seismic analysis into engineering practice!
