- Additional information
- Research from PhD of Wang supervised by Coop. First ever investigation of how sand particles break using high-speed photography, previous work having only measured sand particle strength. Work highly cited for geotechnical engineering (already 47 in WoS). Core micromechanical work that paved the way for EPSRC award of £1.1m for research to create the first ever 'Avatar' soil particles, working on railway ballast with Nottingham and Southampton. Paper led to keynote lecture presenting the research at IS-Atlanta 2018 (Geo-Mechanics from Micro to Macro).
