Biografie
Dr. Mandy Korff is Associate Professor in Geotechnical Practice (since 2016), and a Senior Advisor and member of the science council at Deltares. She works in the fields of underground construction, behaviour of piles, risk management and monitoring, observational method, forensic geo-engineering, soil-structure interaction, liquefaction, and impact of construction activities and earthquakes on structures. Her research is directly related to projects such as the Groningen earthquake studies, Monitoring and modelling of Quay walls and impact of land subisdence and tunnel projects of houses. Dr. Korff was chair of the Geotechnical Department of the Royal Institute of Engineers (KIVI) and the national representative for the ISSMGE during 2008-2017. She is currently a member of ISSMGE’s TC204 and TC206 on Underground Construction and Observational method.
