- Activity in the field of Geomechanics and various forms of its practical application in underground works, namely tunnels, at the Geotechnical Department, LNEC.
- Numerical modelling of the behaviour of geomaterials in underground works, including the development and application of constitutive models, in particular the ones which take into account soil liquefaction.
- Physical modelling of the behaviour of geomaterials in underground works, including cyclic torsional tests to characterize geomaterials which are prone to liquefaction and tests specifically developed to characterize sand-resin mixtures, as a measure of liquefaction mitigation in immersed tunnel foundations.
