Colleagues Fady Abdelaal & Kerry Rowe with Dr Mohamed Morsy just published a long term study examining geomembrane performance nrcresearchpress.com/doi/10.1139/cg… - important assessments given that these contaminant barrier components must last many decades GeoEng Centre @queenscivil

A nice gift from @QueensEngineer delivered to my house today to celebrate my renewal. Thanks to FEAS and Dean Deluzio Kevin Deluzio for the celebration.

Queen’s #FEAS researchers developed geosynthetic liner technologies to keep waste from damaging our planet—and now, thanks to funding from the Queen’s Wicked Ideas competition, they’re developing monitoring systems to track their performance. engineering.queensu.ca/news/2020/10/w…

Amazing keynote delivered by Richard Brachman today at GeoAmericas2020 👌👏

Congrats Rahul Solanki (my first student) for successfully defending your MASc Thesis on interface shear behaviour of geosynthetics in heap leaching applications. Thanks to the examiners Dr. Rowe and Dr. Bathurst & chair Dr. Brachman.
