个人简介
Dr Giacomini received her phD in May 2003 from the University of Parma, Italy. In 2002 she was awarded a four year research fellowship at the University of Parma. In October 2007 she joined the Geotechnical Research group at the University of Newcastle and she is currently a Research Academic and principal researcher in the Priority Research Centre For Geotechnical and Material Modelling , in the Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment. From 2009 to 2011 she was the principal researcher and the Industry Chief Investigator of an Australian Research Council Linkage project (ARC LP0989965) devoted to developing new designs for engineered barriers to protect valuable infrastructures, such as roads and railways, from rockfall hazards. Since 2009 she is the project leader of 3 ACARP (Australian Coal Associated Research Program) research projects to investigate rockfall hazards in mininig and other operational hazards.
Dr Giacomini has a rich background and extensive research experience in rockfall analysis and rock mechanics for civil and mininig applications, which are her principal areas of research. Dr. Giacomini has obtained over $1,000,000 in funding, published 20 articles in international peer-reviewed journals and has presented her research over 40 times at international and national conferences. Dr Giacomini currently supervises 4 research higher degree PhD students and 2 post-doctoral fellows. In 2013 she was awarded the PVC Research Excellence for her demonstrated research excellence in the field and in 2014 she was invited to become a board member of the Computer and Geotechnics Editorial Board. Dr Giacomini has also been an invited reviewer for the international funding body MIUR (Italy), and many international journals in the rock mechanics and engineering fields.
