Research Interests:
My general interest is to work in all aspects of Engineering Geology in both soils and rocks. However, the focus of my research is to perform hazard potential analysis of landslides and rockfalls, both using field based information and computer modeling. I use GIS, SPSS, GSTABL, Colorado Rockfall Simulation Program (CRSP) and, ROCKPACK software programs to support research.
My research in engineering geology includes surface and subsurface investigation of rock and soil as foundation material for geotechnical foundation design. I maintain a balance between theory and practice and prefer to collaborate with geotechnical engineering agencies and department of transportation so that my research has direct application in engineering geology and geotechnical engineering.
