He has been involved in geotechnical research, consulting and education for more than 35 years. He is the author or co-author of more than 350 scientific papers and he sits in the Editorial Board of several International Journals. He has made significant contributions in the areas of unsaturated soils, constitutive and numerical modelling, laboratory testing, field measurements and backanalysis, tunnelling and nuclear waste disposal. He has also consulted widely and has given geotechnical advice on a series of landmark projects, both at home and abroad. In recent years, he has been presented with the Case History Award by the American Rock Mechanics Association in 2006, the R.M. Quigley Award by the Canadian Geotechnical Society in 2009 and the Outstanding Contributions Award by the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG) in 2011. Also, the UK Institution of Civil Engineers has awarded him the Telford Medal twice (in 1994 and 2007), the George Stephenson Medal also twice (in 2008 and 2012) and the Geotechnical Research Medal in 2014. In 2007, he delivered the 47th Rankine Lecture. He is a member of the Royal European Academy of Doctors of Spain and in 2011 he became a Fellow of the UK Royal Academy of Engineering. In 2014, he has been awarded a Doctorate Honoris Causa by the University of Grenoble in France and the Honour Medal of the Colegio de Ingenieros de Caminos (Institution of Civil Engineers) of Spain. In 2017, he received the Kevin Nash Gold Medal from the ISSMGE. In 2019 he has been named as Laureate Engineer by the Royal Academy of Engineering of Spain and awarded a Doctorate Honoris Causa by the Technical University of Bucharest.
