It is approximately 6:46 PM where this user lives (Prague, Czech Republic).

I earned my Ph.D. in geotechnical engineering in 2016 at the University of Basilicata (Potenza, Italy) with a thesis on the chemo-mechanical coupling in clays and its relation to landslides and sustainable mitigation countermeasures.

I am an assistant professor at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, where I study the thermal response of soil and rock to predict changes in landslide frequency and patterns under climate change. I also investigate certain properties of bentonite clay used in deep geological nuclear waste repositories. Previously, I worked at the State Key Laboratory of Geohazard Prevention and Geoenvironment Protection (Chengdu University of Technology, Chengdu, China), where I studied landslide processes, mainly induced by earthquakes, through laboratory experiments, field investigations and remote sensing analyses.

I am actively publishing peer-reviewed articles in academic journals. I serve as an editor and/or reviewer for many of them.

You may find me on WordPress, Facebook, LinkedIn, ResearchGate, Google Scholar and ORCID, or just drop me a message here.
