Dr. Doungkaew is dedicated to advancing our understanding of fracture growth and propagation within chemically reactive environments. Specializing in fracture-related topics in the field of structural geology, the analysis of subsurface fracture patterns, and their statistical distributions, Dr. Doungkaew aims to enhance fundamental insights critical for CO2 sequestration projects and the stability and exploration of fracture-related structures.
Passionate about Python programming, geostatistics, and the application of machine learning in geological sciences, Dr. Doungkaew leverages cutting-edge technology to address pressing environmental and structural challenges. As an educator, she enjoys integrating innovative 21st-century technologies into her teaching, actively introducing her students to the world of technology to enrich their learning experiences.
