Ph.D. Students
Domenica Cambio
Joined Dr. Ge’s group at Missouri S&T in January 2008, her Ph.D. research focuses on developing a simplified semi-analytical method for predicting dynamic responses of soil-pile foundation systems, where nonlinear soil behaviors will be implemented to Novak’s analytical solutions. Before she started her Ph.D. work at Missouri S&T, she was an exchange student from June to October, 2006. She received her Laurea in Civil Engineering from University of Naples “Federico II” in 2008.

M.S. Students
Stephanie Rust
She graduated from Missouri University of Science and Technology in May 2009 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Architectural Engineering and a Minor in Business Administration. She has had three internships in the construction industry. She is a member of Chi Epsilon and an alumna of Kappa Delta Sorority. Her hobbies include horseback riding and iris hybridizing, growing, and judging for the American Iris Society.

Visiting Scholar
Cheng Chen
He is a Ph.D. student from Central South University in China and is a visiting scholar at Missouri S&T. His research interests focus on constitutive modeling of geomaterials including elasto-plasticity, large deformation, unsaturated soil mechanics behavior, long-term behavior of granular materials in asphalt pavements under repeated loading.
