MCV Rock Mechanics

Keen on hydrothermal alteration and volcanoes? 🌋 come to our session today at #EGU23! Room -2.33! @claire_harnett1 @LaKushnir @VOLCAPSE @MCVRockMech @EGU_GMPV

@LDR_Strasbourg @claire_harnett1 @LaKushnir See you guys tomorrow! #EGU23

Rooftop bar drinks with @claire_harnett1 and @LaKushnir! #EGU23

I'm hiring a PhD student to look into hydrogen storage in hard rock caverns in the New Zealand geological and social context as part of Pūhiko Nukutū: a green hydrogen geostorage battery in Taranaki. Check this out! euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/97993

Abstracts open for International Symposium on Machine Learning & Big Data in Geoscience. We are organising a Special Session on Data Quality Assurance and Pre-processing in Geoscience. ISMLG 2023 : International Symposium on Machine Learning wikicfp.com/cfp/servlet/ev…

EGU23 abstract submission has just opened! If you're working on volcanic hydrothermal alteration and water-rock interaction, submit to our session! @LDR_Strasbourg @claire_harnett1 @LaKushnir meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU23/session/…

Interested to apply computational mecahnics for geo-energy production and recovery? My colleague Keita Yoshioka is looking for a PhD student to join his group. Please use the link below for application (Reference Number: 2210WPD). napps1.unileoben.ac.at/napps/public/m…

Grateful to @MBIEsci for funding our endeavour on green H2 geostorage in Taranaki 🙏 Here's a look at what we'll be working on for the next 5 years @NZPoroLab @UCNZ theconversation.com/new-zealand-is…

Really cool research coming out of the Geoenergies group at @unileoben - if you're into hydrogen storage in sedimentary basins, check this out: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@MYasir6755 @MDPIOpenAccess @LDR_Strasbourg @atiyetugrul @Dr_JennDay while keeping the protolith the same. It's interesting that the porosity is still very low (compared to some of the rocks we study!!!) so the micro fracturing and secondary minerals might be really key for the low strength, UPV, etc. of this rock. 2/2

Our new article published in @MDPIOpenAccess journal Geosciences mdpi.com/1715782 @LDR_Strasbourg @atiyetugrul @MCVRockMech @Dr_JennDay your comments would highly be appreciated.

@MYasir6755 @MDPIOpenAccess @LDR_Strasbourg @atiyetugrul @Dr_JennDay Interesting study Muhammad. It would be really neat to look into the CGA granite some more to see if you can find a range of weathering grades from WGI to WGIII on just this one granite to see how weathering progressively affects it 1/2

Had a great time telling the Canadian Rock Mechanics community at @RockEng22 about how rock mechanics can be used to explain volcanic processes. Honoured to have been invited amongst the greatest Canadian rock mechanics practitioners!

Tagging lots of contacts to send this PhD position advert far and wide: @mcnamadd @WING_geothermal @GEORGCluster @Geothermal_DHC @GTOE_Geothermie @CanGEA @Geomechanica @NZGeothermal @GeoScienceLtd @IngaBerre @DavidEDempsey #geothermal #drilling

Interested in Geothermal Drilling? Drilling into magma? I have a PhD position open @unileoben to interpret the subsurface at Krafla with drilling and wireline data and model the magma reaction to drilling in support of @KMT_Project euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/794554

A very dirty but very happy team on the penultimate day of measuring at La Soufrière de Guadeloupe 🌋 can’t wait to see the 2D and 3D images of the subsurface! @volcMarina @LaKushnir @MCVRockMech #MYGALE22 📸 @LaKushnir

.@LaKushnir and @MCVRockMech next to Cratère Sud at La Soufrière de Guadeloupe 🌋 Sulphur coming out was enough to sting the eyes! Our surveys should reveal what’s going on beneath #MYGALE22

Standing in a very slippy fault on La Soufrière de Guadeloupe! In between sliding on our asses, we did some electrical resistivity profiles! @volcMarina @MCVRockMech #MYGALE22 📸 @LaKushnir

The #MYGALE22 team working hard to set up the profile within the fumaroles on the top of the dome at La Soufrière de Guadeloupe! 🌋 @volcMarina @LaKushnir @MCVRockMech

Superbestfriends! @volcMarina and @MCVRockMech getting along great in the field at La Soufrière de Guadeloupe 🌋 #MYGALE22

Collecting in-situ clay samples at La Soufrière de Guadeloupe using @MCVRockMech’s amazing sampling device! Marlène hopes to characterize the properties of the clay back in the lab! #MYGALE22 🌋

New paper out today! Looking at effect of pore pressure on edifice stability, using Ruapehu as a case study: authors.elsevier.com/c/1f65I38lpJfYQ Free download for the next 50 days. @MBIEgovtnz @docgovtnz @TuwharetoaIwi #Uenuku #Ngāti_Rangi
