My area of research is on “Analysis, Design, Testing and Health Monitoring of Structures” toward “predictive maintenance and digital twins” to achieve more “resilient, sustainable” and “smart infrastructure.” My research interests include:
Structural Health Monitoring and Prognosis of Structures
Predictive maintenance, machine learning, digital twins
Structural health monitoring of bridges, scour monitoring, fiber optic sensors
Integration of embedded sensing in computational plasticity
Post-earthquake structural health monitoring of bridges
Resilience Assessment
Resilience and risk assessment of bridges and buildings subjected to hurricane induced surge, wave, wind and scour
Simulation/Testing
Hybrid simulation, seismic testing of structures
Nonlinear finite element analysis of reinforced concrete and steel structures
Fracture mechanics, computational Plasticity
