  • Fractured rock and rock mass discontinuities
  • Ground freezing
  • High temperature geomechanics
  • In-situ stress measurement
  • Lab and in-situ rock characterization and modelling
  • Numerical, analytical, contitutive modelling or rock processes
  • Prediction and modelling
  • Remote sensing and seismicity
  • Reservoir geomechanics
  • Rock mechanics risk assessment
  • Rock physics models for enhanced hydrocarbon recovery
  • Role of uncertainties in rock engineering design
  • Slope stability and land slides
