My boyfriend is in this field and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about his work. This Professor makes me want to learn everything about this field. I like him, he's fun.

You are not just a professor, a dr., a scientist, you're a Mentor. :) i think that is the most important for us students, which is very hard to find nowadays. I may not experience you personally, how i envy your students sitting in front of you. but at least i can feel your virtual hugg as a true mentor. thank you S&T.

12:00 Generally, as a Civil or Structural Engineer, be careful of boiler plate notes. I've relied too much on default notes.

Unbelievable how well Dr. Rogers can relate such high level information to a generalized audience. Thank you for sharing, I will be watching more of Dr. Rogers' content.

Thankyou for videos

Are you still accepting students Dr. Rogers ?

At 1:37:00, says “drip, drip, drip is one million gallons per year”. I tried to calculate this, I got a very different answer. A “drop per second” isn’t well defined but let’s say it is 0.05ml per sec. Then per year is 0.05x60x60x24x365/1000 = 130 litres per year

2024 and this is really cool yet

Super appreciate you Doc David for making your teaching videos accessible from across the world. A professor that we all need.

I took Deming's TQM courses in Houston in the 90's..while I found it a bit on the deep side, there were a few things that I grabbed ahold of & still use. I watched some of my colleagues immerse themselves totally in the theories, and watched them burn themselves to the ground in too much data, too much process & procedure, and they lost common sense & flexibility, taking the human element out of the equation, in most cases. Use with caution!

Does Geotechnics use Fluid Mechanics?

I'll not get over how they say "may-surement" but damn are they smart

54:51 It's like he knew the Netflix series was going to be based there

40:30 thoughts of statistical mechanics

It's rather wild how often I come back to this for the Red Legged Frog joke 😅😅😅

Are these lectures a good prepping tool for the Practice of Geology (PG) Exam?

1:40:38 with the casual monty python reference

1:15:56 with the subtle 4/20 joke that no one in class picked up on. This man is nothing but wisdom and humor. I love it.

I relate with the struggle with Blackboard

I wish I had known more about this before being a materials tester on a clay subgrade highway in Northern Alberta. Could have prevented so much future frost heave. I hope that highway is doing well all these years later (its not, its Northern Alberta).

Isnt 27 years already outside the statuture of liability already

im sad this series is over. I almost have the urge to go enroll in one of his current classes even though I'm halfway through my career duration. Definitely learned a lot though this series.

As a trial lawyer for many years I can see how JDR PhD caused the legal teams opposing him sleepless nights, before, during and after trials employing JDR as expert witness. His 15 lectures here - played over again and again - accompanied my 1000 evenings through COVID shutdowns. Ty JDR.

i con't find this book

any one, have this book (Basic soil forming processes)

any one please has the full name or soft copy of the book he was using Engineering Geologist

Excellent. Thank you.

59:57 😂😂😂😂 its 130am and im camping outside a cave thank you very much Dr. Roger's. Can barely breathe 😅

Very informative and educative course. Thank you very much. Still the geological engineering has evolved these day, the core concepts are valuable.

I have this whole series downloaded to my phone. Makes for a transcendental camping experience at Sam A Baker. David you are Feynman for the geotechnical engineer

😆"Puked up snake"

1:41:51 😂😂😂😂 these and Feynman lectures crack me up

Print and fonts too small, spreadsheets all that is needed

Cool

one of the most helpful teachers for C++. watching this to hopefully pass my exam tomorrow, thanks

What if the customer is careless in car maintenance such as oil changes etc.

Is Rock Physics the same or similar to Rock Mechanics Please? Or, is it different?

Love this starting lesson. Thank you for it. 🤔

I've watched all the thermodynamics videos on the internet. This was the most helpful. Thanks a lot

An excellent series of lectures; many thanks for making them publicly available!

What did Dr. Rogers mean when he mentioned "Mucking out?" Is that when someone uses a Machine, such as as Dragline, to dig out the Sediments from the bottom of a Creek or River? THANK YOU in advance GOOD PEOPLE.

Does the USGS do any work outside the US, such as in the US Territories such as Puerto Rico?

Hell a basic crash course in the 101's of environmental and engineering geology for anyone who has even a financial responsibility on such projects should be mandatory. Too many no-nothings get the call just for the bottom line.

13:25-15:12 should be mandatory viewing for all financial decision makers, lawyers, politicians and accountants with no civil engineering nor geological background. the scale of cost cutting and money-grubbing today in the world by bean counters who don't understand factor of safety is disgusting.

34:13 limited liability clause - fluff language

What is the Physical or Scientific reasoning for underground water to flow or travel the "Great Circle" Movement (as the Professor calls it) to point of being pumped at the well? There is NO DOUBT this is True but I don't understand "why" it is True.

Im new to geology. Love this. I like how geologists battle lawyers. Never new that was a thing.
