My research is in Computational Mechanics, with special focus on
application to the problems of geotechnical and mining engineering. I
obtained both my bachelor's degree (B.A.Sc.) and master's degree (M.A.Sc.) in Civil Engineering. I joined the Computational
Geomechanics Group of the University of Toronto in 2003, where I completed my
Ph.D. degree under the supervision of Professor
J.H. Curran (2008). I joined Rocscience Inc. in September 2008. My research
interests are focused on the theoretical underpinnings and numerical aspects
of computational methods. I look for ways to extend the methods' range of
application in the modelling of jointed rock masses. My current and past
activities involve continuum-based and discreet element techniques, Cosserat
theory of materials with microstructures, and constitutive modelling of
anisotropic and jointed materials. I am also familiar with the large
deformation and buckling analysis, and mesh adaptively techniques for the
finite element solution. I have been a lecturer in the Department of Civil
Engineering of the University of Toronto. |
