The group's interest is in Rock Mechanics, Underground Structures, and Engineering Geology. Research activities comprise the mechanical behavior of rocks, weathered materials and tunneling. It also explores the boundaries of soil and rock mechanics disciplines and the interaction of geomaterials with human activities and natural disasters. Soil-structure interaction under extreme events, problem soils, micromechanics of failure, coupled geophysics and mechanics, stability of extraterrestrial habitats and lunar lava tubes are examples of the interdisciplinary nature of the group.
