Min Liew

Min Liew works in geotechnical engineering with a focus on how permafrost (permanently frozen ground) behaves and degrades as the climate warms, including gas-driven blowout craters, thaw-related ground settlement, and coastal erosion in Arctic regions. This research combines computational modeling, laboratory soil testing, and field studies to inform the design and resilience of civil infrastructure—such as roads, pipelines, and buildings—in cold and Arctic environments. Some earlier work also touches on geotechnical properties of industrial materials like coal tailings and compacted fill.

Publication output has been relatively steady but modest over the past decade, rising from 2018 to a peak around 2021, dipping in 2022-2025, and picking up again in 2026.
