Soil Mechanics
Research is going on in the following areas:
Methods to increase the comfort and availability of gravel roads - Mine tailing dams design and construction short and long term function - New deposition technique for finely grounded waste rock - Use of scrap tyres in earth work application - Environmental assessment of the use of industrial by products - Mechanical properties of sulphide rich soils - Environmental impact of fills of sulphide rich soils - Mechanical behaviour of pellets (LKAB) - Swedish Hydropowert Center - Inner erosion of dams - Stability of tailings dams - Mechanical properties of snow.
Research group
Soil Mechanics includes soil mechanics, soil materials engineering and foundation engineering. The subject applications in civil engineering and infrastructure construction, energy and mining.
