Mining Geomechanics

Our research involves:

• Experimental research to understand fundamental behavior of rock. Research involves investigation of micro and macro mechanical behavior of rock.

• Numerical Modeling applications encompassing stability of coal entries, time-dependent behavior of rockmass.

• Constitutive Model development and implementation in numerical models

• Rock Mechanics application to extra terrestrial objects such as asteroid, mars involving non-destructive testing and robotic applications
