Adrián J. Riquelme Guill, holding a Ph.D. from the University of Alicante and degrees in Civil Engineering and Geological Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, currently serves as an Associate Professor (Profesor Titular de Universidad) in the Geotechnical Engineering field at the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Alicante.

His research is primarily focused within the Geotechnical Engineering and Structures Research Group (INTERES), while also maintaining active collaboration with the Geohazards InSAR Laboratory and Modelling Group at the IGME.

He is an active member of several key academic organizations, including the Spanish Society for Rock Mechanics (SEMR), the International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM), and the European Geosciences Union (EGU). He is actively involved in specialized working groups, notably the Geomechanical Classifications group within SEMR and the Suggested Methods working group of the ISRM (Upgraded SM for Discontinuity Characterization).

In addition to his national academic contributions as a visiting lecturer at the University of Vigo, the University of Oviedo, and CEDEX, he has a significant international teaching record at institutions such as the Polytechnic School of the Litoral (Ecuador), the University do Minho (Portugal), Svay Rieng University (Cambodia), Universiti Sains Malaysia (Malaysia), and Xavier University-Ateneo de Cagayan (Philippines).

He has conducted research stays at the Università degli Studi di Firenze (Italy) and the Andorra Recerca i Innovació research center. His main research interest focuses on the application of remotely sensed data to the geomechanical characterization of rock masses. This work encompasses the monitoring of slope movements, land subsidence, and infrastructure using SAR Interferometry, the use of 3D point clouds for discontinuity characterization, and geomechanical classifications. Furthermore, he is the author of the open-source software Discontinuity Set Extractor and Spherical Density Tool, tools widely adopted by the international technical and academic community.
