About Adam

Dr. Adam Schwartzkopff is a Lecturer in the School of Engineering at the University of Western Australia (UWA), specifically within the Department of Civil, Environmental and Mining Engineering, where he serves as a senior lecturer in mining engineering. He earned his PhD in Engineering from the University of Adelaide, awarded on 31 January 2017, with a thesis entitled 'Prediction of breakdown pressures and fracture propagation surfaces in a rock material subject to hydraulic fracturing using intact specimens and specimens with a replicated crack.' During his postdoctoral research, he investigated the prediction of fault mechanics and microseismicity from an in-situ fluid injection experiment into a pre-existing fault using an extended finite element (XFEM) code. He contributes to teaching by coordinating the Fundamentals of Mining Engineering unit (ENSC3011) and participating in Earth Systems Engineering.
