Niumag Showcases Excellence | Niumag Shines at IACMAG 2025, Low-Field NMR Technology Injects New Momentum into Geotechnical Mechanics Research

The 17th International Conference of the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG 2025) was grandly held at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University from December 18 to 21, 2025. The conference focused on cutting-edge directions such as fundamental theories of soil mechanics, soil-structure interaction mechanisms, fluid flow in porous media, and sustainable environmental geotechnics. It brought together top global experts for in-depth discussions on theoretical breakthroughs and practical applications in the field of geotechnical mechanics.

At this prestigious event, Suzhou Niumag Analytical Instruments Co., Ltd. participated throughout in the form of an exhibition booth. The company showcased the frontier applications of its self-developed low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) equipment in geotechnical research to experts and scholars worldwide, offering the industry new technological perspectives and solutions.

Through technical brochures, case studies, and equipment demonstrations, Niumag team comprehensively introduced the diverse applications of low-field NMR technology in geotechnical mechanics research.

Addressing the fundamental research need for pore structure characterization, this technology enables porosity measurement, pore size distribution analysis, stratified pore size distribution detection, and low-temperature nanopore analysis, providing precise data support for the study of microstructures in geotechnical materials.

In the field of research related to moisture content in geomaterials, the technology can perform water content measurement, stratified moisture content determination, and further investigate soil freeze-thaw mechanisms and unfrozen water content. It also helps analyze the microwave radiation thawing mechanism of frozen soil and tracks moisture distribution and dynamic migration processes in real-time, offering crucial technical support for research in geotechnical engineering and water resource utilization in cold regions.

For engineering materials and mechanical property studies, Niumag’s low-field NMR technology demonstrates strong application potential. It enables full-process monitoring of the hydration process in cement-based materials, providing a scientific basis for material optimization, admixture selection, and curing scheme research. It plays a significant role in multi-field coupling experiments involving temperature/pressure/fluid, aiding in the study of microscopic seepage mechanisms and capturing dynamic changes during imbibition and bleeding processes.

Furthermore, the technology can be applied to triaxial stress-strain studies of soil, analyzing crack development through non-destructive testing methods. It also investigates various damage mechanisms such as rock blasting damage, stress damage, thermal damage, freeze-thaw damage, and acid/salt corrosion damage, providing technical assurance for safety assessments and disaster prevention in geotechnical engineering.

As an enterprise deeply committed to the low-field NMR field, Niumag is building a global bridge for industry exchange with its professional technical expertise, fostering innovative research in geotechnical mechanics, and injecting sustained momentum into the industry’s high-quality development.

Currently, the IACMAG 2025 International Conference is still ongoing. The Niumag booth continues to provide consultation and solution interpretation services on the application of low-field NMR technology in the geotechnical field. All attending experts, researchers, and industry peers are welcome to visit Niumag booth for in-depth exchanges, to share insights on expanding technology application scenarios and solving practical engineering challenges, and to explore potential collaboration opportunities.
