Andry Razakamanantsoa

Andry Razakamanantsoa is a Researcher at Gustave Eiffel University, serving as Sustainable Development Research Officer and Deputy Director of the Geomatériaux, Environmental Interactions Laboratory (GERS-GIE). He is affiliated with the Department of Geotechnical Engineering, Environment, Natural Hazards and Earth Sciences (GERS), specifically within the Geomatériaux and Environmental Interactions (GIE) research group. With 83 publications and over 1,184 citations, his work focuses on sustainable geotechnical solutions and environmental interactions.

His research interests span hydromechanical behaviors of geomaterials, durability of treated soils, soil-atmosphere interactions, physical modeling of aerosols, material rheology, and sustainable construction techniques. Key research axes include multi-physical and multi-scale coupling around infrastructure and cities, valorization of waste materials in construction, durability of earth structures, and dust emission control from unpaved roads.

Razakamanantsoa's publications demonstrate a strong focus on practical applications of geotechnical research, with particular emphasis on sustainable construction materials, soil treatment techniques, and environmental impact mitigation. His recent work shows increasing integration of machine learning techniques for environmental monitoring and analysis of construction material behavior.

He has participated in numerous research projects including PROPER (European assessment of highway stormwater runoff pollution), OI2018_F2 (water economy), OI2019_F3 (mapping suitable lands for raw earth construction), and dust emission control studies for earthmoving sites. His research has practical applications in road construction, sustainable building techniques, and environmental protection.

Razakamanantsoa collaborates extensively with industry partners including the French National Federation of Public Works (FNTP), the Union of Earth and Sea Professions (UMTM), and the Professional Syndicate of French Excavators (SPTF), ensuring his research has direct practical relevance to industry challenges.
