Antoine Jacquey

I am an Assistant Professor working in the Geotechnical Research Group of the Department of Civil, Geological and Mining Engineering Department at Polytechnique Montreal.

In my research, I study the dynamics controlling the deformation of porous reservoir rocks and of geological faults at various scales. I’m particularly interested in applications for the development of sustainable geoenergy technologies in the context of climate change, such as geothermal energy, $CO_{2}$ storage, and hydrogen storage.

I combine fundamental theoretical and modeling techniques to describe the multiphysics coupling controlling the deformation of porous rocks and geological faults in response to anthropogenic forcing conditions as relevant to develop strategies for mitigating the risk of induced seismicity.
