The ISRM Technical Program will be divided into 20 tracks. Papers will be divided among these technical program topics:
- Application of geophysics in rock mechanics
- Enabled rock mechanics: scope of augmented reality, virtual reality and artificial intelligence
- Explosive free rock breakage techniques for rock excavation and drilling
- Fracture mechanics and fracture propagation
- Fractured rock and rock mass discontinuities
- Ground freezing
- High temperature geomechanics
- In-situ stress measurement
- Lab and in-situ rock characterization and modelling
- Numerical, analytical, contitutive modelling or rock processes
- Prediction and modelling
- Remote sensing and seismicity
- Reservoir geomechanics
- Rock mechanics risk assessment
- Rock physics models for enhanced hydrocarbon recovery
- Role of uncertainties in rock engineering design
- Slope stability and land slides
