Research Interests
My research interests include the fluid-rock interaction and rock deformation. My current project is to investigate the porosity and permeability evolution, fracture development and chemical composition change during olivine carbonation.
My research tools include the conventional tri-axial deformation apparatus, the synchrotron based in-situ x-ray nano/micro-tomography and ICP-MS. The goal of this research is to understand the mechanisms for peridotite carbonation and guide future implementation of using ultramafic rocks as safe carbon storage.
