Engineering Geology and Geological Disaster
This cluster involves members from different expertise involving engineering geology, environmental geology, structural geology, geophysics and GIS. Research specification revolves around geo-related hazards including landslides, floods, tectonic-induced hazards – earthquake, liquefaction as well as ground and underground issues – contaminations, pollutions, settlements, etc.
