Md Mizanur Rahman is a professor in Geotechnical Engineering at Adelaide University. His research has driven major advancements in geotechnical engineering through pioneering work in static liquefaction, soil stabilisation via biocementation, pavement and permeable pavement design, and sustainable urban infrastructure solutions. He brings expertise in specialised laboratory testing, advanced instrumentation, constitutive modelling, and computational geotechnics. He has contributed to over 24 research projects totalling AUD $6.5 million, including ARC Discovery Project, Linkage, and competitive state government grants. He has published about 275+ peer-reviewed articles and is known internationally for the excellence of his multidisciplinary research. These contributions have already influenced design practices and continue to shape geotechnical engineering standards globally. His research impact is widely recognised through prestigious awards, fellowships and leadership roles, including:

2022: The winner of the Telford Premium award, Institution of Civil Engineers, United Kingdom 
2019: Endeavour Executive Leadership Award (Fellowship) by the Department of Education and Training, Australian Government
2012: Australian Academy of Science Early Career Fellowship
2022-: Vice-Chair, the ISSMGE Technical Committee, TC 307: Geotechnical Sustainability 
2020-: Corresponding Member, the ISSMGE Technical Committee, TC 202: Transportation Geotechnics 
2019- : Editor-in-Chief for Geotechnical Research, Institution of Civil Engineers, United Kingdom 
2016-26: Lead developer, DesignPave, the national standard permeable pavement design software for Concrete Masonry Association of Australia (CMAA).

He obtained his PhD in Civil Engineering from the University of New South Wales (UNSW Canberra) in 2009. The title of his PhD dissertation was - “Modelling the effect of fines on liquefaction behaviour of sandy soil”. Since then, his research has fundamentally changed the understanding of static liquefaction in granular soils. He established that static liquefaction is triggered at a peak stress ratio, known as the instability stress ratio, which can be predicted from the soil state, now widely adopted in practice. In a world-first, he introduced a simple b-parameter derived from soil microstructure that modifies soil state, simplifying the critical state framework into a practical constitutive model for static liquefaction prediction. Today, he ranks #1 globally in the topic, T.6068: Shear Strength; Soil Mechanics; Liquefaction (2014–2023, SciVal). 
 
After obtaining his PhD, between 2009-10, he worked as a research associate and postdoctoral fellow at UNSW Canberra, Australia and the University of Canterbury, New Zealand, respectively. In December 2010, he joined UniSA (one of the foundation institutions of Adelaide University) as a lecturer and was promoted to senior lecturer, associate professor and professor in 2014, 2018 and 2022, respectively.

  1. Biostabilisation (EICP and MICP) of soils
  2. Liquefaction behaviour of sand and sandy (with fines) soils
  3. "Equivalent state theory" for sandy soils and Critical state soil mechanics
  4. Constitutive modelling of granular materials
  5. Pavement and cyclic loading behaviour of granular material
