Welcome to Geotechnical Modeling and Innovation Research Group at UNH<\/h2>\n

Our research group performs research in geotechnical engineering and geomechanics, focusing on the effects of soil moisture on the response of soil-structure systems under hydromechanical and climatic extreme stressors such as earthquakes and floods. The primary approach of our research group is to understand the underlying mechanics of such problems through geotechnical modeling and establishing innovative solutions. You can find more information about the research projects, products, and team members on this website.<\/p>\n\t
