Research Interests:
My research has focused on the theoretical and experimental research and engineering practice of formation mechanism of geological hazards and their prevention. Recently I have focused to conduct a multidiscipline study to learn the pregnant environments and disaster-inducing modes of rock slide under the effect of acid rain with their engineering geological models built, to explain the emplacement mechanism of rock slide under different geological environments, and to reveal the comprehensive mechanism of rock slide in acid rain area.
