1. Soil mechanics related to climatic changes:
Ø Multi-scale experimental studies of cracks in geo-materials;
Ø Properties of special soils. Concentrating on swelling and shrinkage deformation of special soil under complex boundary conditions, influence of minerals, microstructure, evolutions of cracks, tensile strength etc.
Ø Focusing on materials properties, deformation process and stability of slopes, establishing stability evaluation methods and forecasting models.
