CONFERENCE CHAIR
Dr Johan WesselooAustralian Centre for Geomechanics
Johan has been involved in geotechnical engineering since 1998, with experience in both underground and open pit environments. He developed a keen interest in risk-based design and design acceptance levels in early 2000 with
application in both open pit and underground scenarios. In 2007, Johan joined the ACG as a research fellow in rock engineering. He is also project leader for the development of mXrap, a geotechnical data analysis and monitoring platform to create apps for the transfer of research outcomes to practitioners.
CONFERENCE AUDIENCE
This inaugural conference is applicable to all geomechanics practitioners, consultants, researchers and mining engineers across all mining geomechanics disciplines, as well as senior executives tasked with managing business risks.
The conference will address risk from geotechnical fields in mining including surface and underground rock mechanics, tailings and backfill, environmental geomechanics and mine closure.
