Multiscale Geomechanics and Geotechnical Digital Twin (MG²DT) Lab

Our mission is to advance geotechnical science and engineering for secure, affordable, reliable, and intelligent infrastructure systems.

​

We study the multiscale and multiphysics behavior of soils and rocks, develop robust physics-based and data-driven models, and leverage digital twin frameworks to support hazard characterization, risk assessment, and resilient infrastructure design under changing environmental conditions.

​

The lab focuses on understanding and modeling the complex behavior of geomaterials across spatial and temporal scales. By integrating experimental insight, high-fidelity numerical modeling, and data-driven approaches, we develop digital twin platforms for geotechnical infrastructure systems. ​Our research supports hazard mitigation, climate adaptation, and sustainable infrastructure by enabling system-level prediction, uncertainty-aware decision-making, and adaptive infrastructure management.
