👋 Hi, I am Shupeng CHAI (柴术鹏, 柴術鵬)
I am a PhD candidate in geotechnical engineering at Hong Kong Polytechnic University. I am currently focusing on the influences of fault roughness on rupture dynamics and stick-slip behavior through integrated laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. My interdisciplinary academic foundation spanning geotechnical engineering, mining engineering, and geophysics, and two years of experience in university-level teaching, bring a unique perspective to my research. My research interests include
- Rock mechanics and geophysics
- Geotechnical engineering
- Planetary Geomechanics (e.g., Lunar landslides)
- Interaction between rock and mining backfill
- 2023–2026 (expected), PhD in Geotechnical Engineering, Hong Kong Polytechnic University
- 2018–2020, MASc in Mineral Engineering, University of Montreal (Polytechnique Montréal)
- 2014–2018, BEng in Civil Engineering, Wuhan University
