In this YouTube episode, Dr. Morteza Davarpanah discusses "Holographic Technology and Its Application in Rock Mechanics." He holds expertise in mining engineering and rock mechanics, with a successful academic journey and industrial experience. Holography, introduced in 1971, has evolved to monitor rock behavior under stress, crucial for oil drilling. This technology captures 3D images of rock samples, aiding in microstructure analysis and behavior prediction. Dr. Davarpanah's research focused on heat, mineral viscosity, and microstructure changes in sandstone. He suggests further advancing holographic technology to optimize design and accurately anticipate rock behavior, emphasizing its transformative potential in the field.
