PROGRAM GUIDELINES
Apply to PD 08-1634 as follows:
For full proposals submitted via FastLane:
standard Grant Proposal Guidelines apply.
For full proposals submitted via Grants.gov:
NSF Grants.gov Application Guide; A Guide for the Preparation and Submission of NSF Applications via Grants.gov Guidelines apply
(Note: The NSF Grants.gov Application Guide is available on the Grants.gov website and on the NSF website at:
http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=grantsgovguide)
Please be advised that the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) includes
revised guidelines to implement the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act (ACA)
(Pub. L. No. 110-69, Aug. 9, 2007.) As specified in the ACA, each proposal that requests
funding to support postdoctoral researchers must include a description of the mentoring
activities that will be provided for such individuals. Proposals that do not comply
with this requirement will be returned without review (see the PAPP Guide Part I:
Grant Proposal Guide Chapter II for further information about the implementation of
this new requirement).

SYNOPSIS
The GEOMM program supports fundemental research on the mechanics and engineering properties of geologic materials including the mechanical properties of soil and rock, mechanically stabilized and biologically modified soil, and on natural processes, such as hydraulic, biological and thermal, that affect the behavior of these materials. Research on soil-structure interaction and liquefaction are also funded by the program. Support is provided for theoretical studies, constitutive and numerical modeling, and laboratory, centrifuge, and field testing.
