Before 2016, my research focus is in the field of Geological Engineering, in particular Block Theory. I had the privilege of being advised by Prof. Qingchun Yu and Dr. Genhua Shi (the founder of Block Theory, DDA, NMM). The following list contains some of my papers in Block Theory. Most of them are SCI indexed. You can also check out this repo if you are interested in applying exact arithmetic packages in rock block identification algorithms.
