Research Interests:

My research has focused on the study of landslides, especially in rock avalanches (one kind of landslide disasters). I am interested in explore the emplacement and dynamics of such geological disasters. In the past 10 years, I have investigated many typical cases distributed in Sichuan, Xizang, and Xinjiang of China, and gained some innovative achievements.

My current interests are

(1) the study of the sedimentary structures of rock avalanches, aiming to reveal their possible kinematics, and

(2) dynamic shearing testing to learn the possible hypermobility of rock avalanches with the rotary high-velocity shearing apparatus designed by Prof. Shimamoto.

The first theme will improve our understanding on the emplacement processes of the whole body of rock avalanche. The second topic will help us to learn the dynamic processes of the basal facies of rock avalanche. Both of them will contribute to the reduction of future hazards related to rock avalanches.

I have no student now.
