Dr Bore research is focused on the application of quantitative geophysics – and in particular in geo-electrics (electric and electromagnetic) methods - for the assessment of subsurface or manmade structure. His research is by nature multidisciplinary at the crossroads of geophysics, geotechnical and geo-environmental sciences.
Dr Bore has been working the past nine years within the Geosystems Group at the School of Civil Engineering at UQ. The group has a strong background in geotechnical and geo-environmental engineering such as erosion or soils desiccation related problems, his research portfolio has a dominant geotechnical colour. In this context. Dr Bore is leading several project focused on the application of quantitative geophysics in mine waste characterisation. Otherwise, Dr Bore has been applying geo-electrics methods to several areas such as civil engineering with more fundamental research focused on the investigation of cementitious materials during hydration. Dr Bore is also currently involved in research project focused on the use of geophysical methods to monitor carbon sequestration in soils.
