Xuan Kang

Dr. Xuan Kang M.Sc. is a researcher in Geotechnics at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, affiliated with the Institute of Geotechnical Engineering within the College of Landscape, Water and Infrastructure. Their work focuses on soil mechanics, landslide dynamics, and numerical modeling.

• Project: Investigation on soil-rock interface in bedding landslides (FWF-funded, 2023-2026)
• Key research areas: Soil-water interaction, hypoplastic modeling, slope stability, and granular material behavior
• Recent publications: 7 since 2020, including studies on centrifuge modeling, wetting collapse, and SPH implementation for geotechnical problems

Notable collaborations with Prof. Wei Wu and Shun Wang on landslide mechanics and constitutive modeling.
