Introduction
I am interested in developing automated solutions and smart apps for engineering workflows related to CAD, BIM, and GIS domains. After graduating as a civil engineer, I studied advanced courses related to software engineering, Artificial intelligence, Computational methods, and Structure analysis to be qualified for this specific business sector. Currently, I am a Ph.D. Researcher at McGill University and my research focuses on multiple hazards-risk-estimation and nonlinear numerical simulation.

Over the last two decades, the UAE’s construction sector has grown significantly with the development of tall buildings, but the region faces seismic risks. Similar concerns in China led to earthquake simulation research on a city scale. The objectives include developing programming for parallel computing and creating simplified models for estimati...
In the last two decades, the construction sector in UAE has been expanded to include a high range of tall and supertall buildings. Geographically, this region is surrounded by multiple earthquakes, such as the Zagros Fold and Thrust Belt. Additionally, the Makran Subduction Zone shows an activity source indicating a relatively high seismic risk. A...

In the wake of the 1994 Northridge and 1995 Kobe earthquakes, structural designers adopted performance-based engineering concepts instead of traditional deterministic design approaches. The primary change was to evaluate the design according to stakeholders’ interests instead of the engineering parameters. This evaluation process required a probabi...

Modeling Steel Plate Shear Wall (SPSW) behavior can be computationally demanding. This is especially true when high-fidelity modeling is carried out via shell or 3D solid elements. It has been shown that SPSW behavior can be captured with adequate accuracy through the strip method via nonlinear truss elements idealization. The widely accepted and r...
his research paper presents the findings of an attempt to measure the implications of using ultra-high-performance concrete for shear walls in tall buildings considering structural efficiency and environmental sustainability. 20 and 40-story structures with the lateral force-resisting system consisting of coupled special reinforced concrete shear w...
