Biao Li, PhD., PEng

Dr. Biao Li is an Associate Professor of Geotechnical Engineering at Concordia University.  He obtained a B.Sc. in Civil Engineering from China University of Geosciences Beijing and a Ph.D. in Geomechanics from the University of Calgary. His research expertise is in energy related experimental and computational geomechanics, thermal-hydro-mechanical coupling, soil-structure interaction, and geophysics. During his Ph.D. study, he was awarded the Eyes High international doctoral scholarship from the University of Calgary, and he was awarded the MITACS acceleration internship from 2013 to 2015. He was selected as a future leader of the American Rock Mechanics Association (ARMA) in 2021. He serves as the associate editors of Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, Environmental Geotechnics, and as the editorial board members of Bulletin of Engineering Geology and the Environment, Marine Georesources & Geotechnology, and Deep Resources Engineering. He is indented to develop economic, effective and efficient models for energy-geotechnical-geoenvironmental industries.
