Event Description CEE welcomes Ning Lu, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) and the director of the joint CSM/USGS Geotechnical Research Laboratory in Golden, Colorado. He is a recipient of ASCE 2007 Norman Medal and the recipient of ASCE 2010 Croes Medal, and an elected fellow of the Geological Society of America and the American Society of Civil Engineers. His current research focuses on developing a unified coupled hydro-mechanical framework for variably saturated porous media and applying it to rainfall-induced landslide analysis. Lu is the senior author of the widely used textbook, Unsaturated Soil Mechanics (John Wiley and Sons, 2004) and Hillslope Hydrology and Stability, (Cambridge
University Press, 2012).
