Wei Li was a postdoctoral researcher working with Professor Ruben Juanes in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at MIT. He is now on the faculty at Stony Brook University. He obtained his Ph.D. degree at MIT in 2019 under the supervision of Professor Herbert H. Einstein. He is strongly interested in the geosystems centered on infrastructure and energy. His Ph.D. work focused on developing mathematical and experimental models to understand how the flow and dissolution create cavities, with applications to sinkhole hazard evaluation and enhanced oil production. In his postdoc research, he developed novel experimental techniques, such as a laboratory earthquake system and photoporomechanics, to study the mechanics and physics of induced earthquakes and granular media.
