I completed my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Canterbury, Aotearoa New Zealand, following a master’s degree in Structural-Earthquake Engineering from Iran University of Science and Technology, Tehran, Iran, and a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from K. N. Toosi University of Technology, Tehran, Iran.
My academic and professional background centres on Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), earthquake engineering, and the practical use of data to support better decisions for the earthquake-affected built environment. Over several years of hands-on work with real earthquake and structural response data in New Zealand, I have built strong experience in developing practical SHM solutions bridging the gaps between research and real-world application.
My main technical expertise includes signal processing, vibration-based SHM, Digital Twins (DT), and non-linear modelling of dynamic systems, with a focus on hysteresis behaviour and damage mechanisms.
