Research Project
My research project focuses on blast resistance analysis and design of Smart Steel Frame Structure, and propose key design procedures for practicing engineer. Due to the increasing awareness of safety concerns for public buildings from intentional or unintentional blast loads and the growing number of domestic regions that suffer from terrorist activities; the analysis and design of blast loads have become a necessity not only for facilities prone to accidental/chemical explosions but also to any public building. However, current public standards such as Eurocode do not address this field and do hardly provide any provisions for the analysis of structures "Smart Structure" subjected to blast load effects. A further specialty of the problem is that the material behavior is influenced by the strain-rate effect. Accordingly, it is of special importance to provide simplified analysis techniques that can reliably estimate the blast load effect and is applicable in everyday practice via codification. On the basis of the results, the safe structural configuration can be recognized and design concepts, as well as design methods, can be developed.

Teaching and supervising the lectures and projects of the following courses: 1. Engineering Survey. 2. Statistics for Engineering.

Sulaymaniyah Grain Silo Demolition Monitoring Committee

Hiwa Rauf for Investment & Development (HRID)

Feb 2018 – Mar 2018 (2 mos)

A member of a committee that supervises the Sulaymanyah Grain Silo demolition. The committee was selected in an open competition among the other university academic committees to evaluate the influence of the blast waves and ground shaking on the surrounding residential buildings. Several seismographs were installed hours before the detonation with few hundred meters from the silo chamber. The data were recorded and virtual investigations were also conducted to see possible damages to the surrounding residential and commercial buildings.

Honors & awards

PhD Scholarship - Hungarian Government
Jan 2019
Fully-funded scholarship from the Hungarian Government. The Stipendium Hungaricum Scholarship Programme was launched in 2013 by the Hungarian Government and is coordinated by Tempus Public Foundation since 2015. The program is based on bilateral educational cooperation agreements signed between the Ministries responsible for education in the sending countries/territories and Hungary or between institutions. Currently, more than 70 Sending Partners are engaged in the program on 5 different continents, and the geographical scope of the program is spreading each year. The scholarship scheme aims to satisfy the growing demand of international students to study in Hungary, producing increasing numbers since the launch of the program, and also supporting the overall internationalization of Hungarian higher education.
