Research summary
AI-generated

Junyi Duan's research centers on geotechnical engineering, focusing on soil behavior under environmental stresses such as drying-wetting cycles, erosion, and expansive soil deformation, with applications to slope stability, railway subgrades, and retaining structures. The publication record also includes some unrelated titles in biomedical (HIV research) and physics/materials science topics, suggesting this name may be shared across multiple distinct research profiles in the underlying data. Prospective students interested in soil mechanics, ground improvement, and transportation geotechnics would find the geotechnical-focused work most relevant.
