Dr Roisin Buckley

Senior Lecturer (Infrastructure & Environment)

Biography

I am a Senior Lecturer in the James Watt School of Engineering and a Chartered Civil Engineer. After graduating with a BEng in Civil Engineering from the University of Galway in 2007, I spent 6 years working as a geotechnical engineer in Ireland and Australia. I completed my MSc and PhD at Imperial College London focused on offshore pile foundations in chalk and then moved to the University of Oxford as a Departmental Lecturer. I was appointed at Glasgow as a Lecturer in 2021 and Senior Lecturer in 2024.

I am a Visiting Fellow in Engineering at the University of Oxford and an Associate Editor of Géotechnique. In 2024, I was named Chartered Engineer of the Year by Engineers Ireland for leading geotechnical engineering research to fuel the energy transition.

Research interests

Overview

My research focuses on the complex subsurface and its interaction with onshore and offshore engineered structures. Together with my group and external collaborators, I am working on a range of experimental and theoretical problems related to geotechnics including; subsurface characterisation and field monitoring, soil-structure interaction, the behaviour of weak rocks and large-scale static, cyclic and dynamic field testing. My current research has a particular focus on foundations for offshore wind turbines and my recent contributions have led to practical new design approaches that are now being applied at several multi-£bn developments.

Expertise

Subsurface characterisation; field monitoring; soft rocks; dynamic testing; offshore geotechnics; large-scale field testing
