Research summary
AI-generated

Antonio Bobet works in geotechnical engineering, focusing on how soils, rocks, and underground structures such as tunnels and retaining walls behave under different loading conditions, including earthquakes and other ground motions. Recent work also extends into related areas like fault friction mechanics, lunar surface construction materials, and infrastructure protection strategies. The research combines numerical modeling, laboratory testing (e.g., centrifuge tests), and field-oriented studies for practical civil engineering applications.

Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade with peaks around 2020 and 2023, but has shown a gradual decline in the most recent years toward a lower steady rate of roughly a dozen papers per year.
