Key qualifications:Developed the Q-system of rock mass characterization in 1973, which now has

world-wide application for site characterization and support design for tunnels and largecaverns, with more recent links to seismic velocities and deformation moduli and inputfor numerical modelling at dam sites. Pioneered and developed practical tools in the1970’s and 1980’s, now widely used for describing rock masses as jointed media (i.e.,JRC, JCS, !r and the Barton-Bandis constitutive model), and supervised use of suchmethods in numerical modelling (i.e. UDEC-BB). Has pioneered the use of NMT, theNorwegian Method of Tunnelling for use with the Q-system, in countries outsideNorway, as an economic single shell alternative to other traditional methods of tunneldesign and support such as NATM.

Has 40 years of experience working with a variety of rock engineering projects,mostly in civil engineering in more than 30 countries, including deep tunnels in Norway,Italy and Kashmir, and a deep 1.6 km mine shaft instrumentation in the USA. Hasspecialised in international nuclear waste and tunnelling and cavern projects in recentyears, working mainly for contractors and design consortia. Performed nuclear wastedisposal related rock mass characterization, and repository studies in USA (severallocations, including Yucca Mountain), UK (caverns) and Sweden (Stripa, Forsmark,Simpevarp, Äspö). Has provided rock mass characterization advice in mines in SouthAfrica, Canada, Australia, Brazil and Chile.

Projects have most frequently involved tunnels and rock caverns, and sometimes damabutments, for the hydropower and transportation industry, including the 62 m spanGjøvik cavern in Norway, and the planned 315 m high Bakhtiary dam in Iran.

Dr. Peter K. Kaiser – Nomination for 2011 6th ISRM Müller Award

PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

Dr. Peter Kaiser’s contributions to the development of rock mechanics as an applied science has had a profound impact on the profession, both in Canada and around the world, both in civil and mining engineering. His vision of rock mechanics as a multi-disciplinary subject has driven his research and contributed greatly to our understanding of time-dependent rock behaviour, brittle rock failure, ground support and microseismicity. His achievements and publication record over the past 20 years may be unmatched in terms of quality, quantity, breadth and impact: 85 international journal articles, contributions to 10 books and 180 conference proceedings, as well as numerous professional development seminars.

Dr. Kaiser started his teaching and academic career with the highly respected geotechnical team at the University of Alberta, before being appointed Chair for Rock Mechanics & Ground Control at Laurentian University and Director of the Geomechanics Research Centre (GRC) in Sudbury, Ontario. This centre, under his leadership and vision, grew rapidly into a team of researchers working to support the industry's needs for safer and more economical excavations at depth. As Director, he supervised over 45 graduate students and 16 post-doctoral fellows and research associates many of whom have assumed key positions in industry and academia, with six having received university appointments as professors: Dr’s. Zou (Dalhousie), Hutchinson (Queen's U.), Tannant (UBC Okanagan), Martin (U. of Alberta), Diederichs (Queen's U.), Cai (Laurentian U.) and Grasselli (U. of Toronto). Dr. Diederichs’ thesis completed under Dr. Kaiser’s supervision was awarded the ISRM Rocha Medal in 2002.

In 1994, Dr. Kaiser received the Canadian Geotechnical Society's John A. Franklin award for his contributions to rock mechanics. His steady involvement with the international rock mechanics community resulted in his serving as an ISRM Vice President (North America) from 1991 to 1995, and as a member of several international commissions [e.g., ISRM Commission on Failure of Underground Openings] and technical review boards (most recently at Jinping II in China).

In 1998, Dr. Kaiser attracted funding to expand the R&D effort by adding two new Chairs at Laurentian University, one in Mining Technology and one in Environmental Monitoring, creating MIRARCO - Mining Innovation, Rehabilitation and Applied Research Co., a not-for-profit research corporation owned by Laurentian University. Over his ten year presidency, MIRARCO grew to an internationally recognized research centre with over 40 staff and graduate students.

In 2000, Dr. Kaiser was elected a Fellow of the Engineering Institute of Canada for his 'exceptional contributions to engineering'. In 2001, he established a Centre for Integrated Monitoring Technology to enhance field-based research capabilities by providing data collection, processing and interpretation tools for environmental and mining applications. By introducing virtual reality facilities for immersive data interpretation (now 4 in Canada, 2 in China, and 1 in USA), Dr. Kaiser’s group established a unique research approach that attracted numerous mining companies, accelerating the transfer of research results into practice at mine sites and universities.

In 2004, Dr. Kaiser was inducted as a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineers. This profound honour was in recognition of his distinguished and career-long service to the engineering profession. The Academy comprises Canada’s most accomplished engineers, who have expressed their dedication to the application of science and engineering principles in the interests of the country.

In 2007, Dr. Kaiser was appointed as Founding Director/CEO of CEMI - the Centre for Excellence in Mining Innovation. Established in collaboration with national and international R&D sponsors, CEMI has established itself as a networked centre for world-class, industry-focused research and innovation, advancing state-of-the-art concepts, processes and methodologies in support of the exploration, mining and underground construction industries.


As an advisor and consultant in geomechanics related to underground excavations, he has worked for numerous mines in Australia, Canada, Chile and the USA, as well as many challenging tunnelling projects in Canada, Nepal, India, Switzerland (most recently the Lötschberg and Gotthard base tunnels) and China (JinpingII hydro project).

HIGHLIGHTS OF RESEARCH & TECHNICAL CONTRIBUTIONS

1. Effect of Stress Change on Excavation and Support Performance

This work revealed the significant effect of mining-induced stress changes on the bond capacity of cable bolts and demonstrated that the apparent lack of support capacity can largely be attributed to the loss of confinement. The recognition of this important mechanistic principle has resulted in a major shift in support configuration in deep mining. Dr. Kaiser’s group found that rock mass relaxation not only affects the support performance, but is also the primary cause for excavation instability, overbreak (dilution) and caving of stopes. The results have now been successfully applied by industry to reduce production costs.

2. Utilization of Microseismic Monitoring Data for Ground Control

Dr. Kaiser’s research conducted on microseismicity at Brunswick Mine led to the development of a new tensile source mechanism model, producing realistic source sizes, as well as new microseismic data interpretation procedures that assist in the daily ground control decision-making process. By linking seismic observations and stress models, progress has been made on the detection of zones with serious rock mass degradation. These findings have since been applied to assist in mine sequencing, support design, and mine safety enhancement. Hazard maps are now utilized to identify safety risks and to implement risk management procedures.

3. Support and Ground Control in Burst-Prone Rock

This work provided the rock mechanics community with a rational design methodology for selecting support systems in burst prone ground. Rockburst damage mechanisms were identified and methods of analysis and support design were developed for each. Extensive field and laboratory testing of support elements and systems (e.g., spray-on liners) under both static and dynamic conditions not only generated design data, but led to new insights concerning rock support interaction. The resulting handbook stands as the most innovative and comprehensive practical document related to this important area of rock engineering.

4. Brittle Rockmass Failure Model

The concept of a brittle failure criterion (m = 0) was first introduced by Dr. Kaiser at the Schlumberger lecture in 1993. Since then, in collaboration with many of his students and colleagues, extensive research with numerous case studies have been conducted and the results summarized in a series of keynote papers (see www.miningexcellence.ca). This work has revolutionized the application of numerical models for stability assessment of deep underground excavations and support design in hard rock. The findings were used to develop risk assessment tools (Drift@Risk; Stope@Risk; etc. ) for use in VR studios. These tools allows one to identify support hazards and requirements and to optimize support costs.
