José has been involved in numerous geotechnical engineering studies at the conceptual, pre-feasibility, feasibility, and detailed design stages.
His work has included site and laboratory investigations, supervision of sonic and diamond drilling, oversight of test pits, and geotechnical characterization of materials associated with mining processes.
José has worked on a wide range of projects involving 2D and 3D stress–strain numerical modelling applied to high-altitude waste rock dumps, gravel dumps, tailings storage facilities, and heap leach piles.
As an advanced user of software such as FLAC3D, PLAXIS, and RS2, he has contributed to projects in soil mechanics, foundation design, and slope stability analysis.
In addition, José has specialized in numerical modelling of unsaturated flow using tools such as SVFlux and HYDRUS.
