Research interests
I am interested in the analysis, design, and performance of reinforced masonry and concrete structures, modelling of their nonlinear structural behaviour, and repair/retrofit/rehabilitation strategies.
My current lines of research include:
Applications are invited for students interested in pursuing graduate studies in these areas.

My current lines of research include:
- Nonlinear analysis, design, and behaviour of masonry and reinforced concrete structures
- Large-scale system and component testing (seismic and non-seismic)
- Structural simulation (finite-element analysis, strut-and-tie models)
- Use of innovative materials and details
Applications are invited for students interested in pursuing graduate studies in these areas.
