报告人简介：

Background

Ph.D., P.Eng., FCIM Professor. Registered professional engineer in British Columbia and a member of CARMA, CDA, CGS, CIM, CSCE, EIC, IAEG, and ISRM.

Research

His expertise is in rock mechanics, geotechnical engineering, and engineering geology with emphasis on applied research associated with surface and underground excavations in rock for civil and mining applications, geohazard analysis, and geotechnical engineering of earth dams. He work in a wide spectrum of areas and seek research projects with a strong applied engineering component. He have experience with terrestrial photogrammetry as a field measuring and mapping tool, more recently using drones as a platform to take photos.

He have worked on techniques to artificially support and stabilize excavations (surface or underground), rock slope stability assessment, and aspects related to dam safety. Application of the principles of engineering geology, geohazard identification, geomechanics, and blasting is often required in the research.

Consulting

He provide geotechnical engineering consulting services in BC including: geohazard assessment, slope stability evaluation, rock support design, rockfall assessment and mitigation, and blast damage evaluation. He also provide review services in Canada and internationally.Clients have included BC, Alberta,and Ontario government agencies, geotechnical consulting companies, mining companies, developers, and contractors.
