Self-introduction
My background in Japan came back to 1998 when I started my Ph.D. study at the Department of Civil Engineering, the University of Tokyo. In 2019, I came back to Japan to begin a new career at Hiroshima University. I received my B.Eng. and M.Eng. degrees from the University of Tehran (Iran) and Tarbiat Modares University (Iran) in 1995 and 1998, respectively. After my graduation from the University of Tokyo in 2001, I joined Tarbiat Modares University, where I was promoted to full professorship in 2013. My research interests include health monitoring of various infrastructures, soil-structure-fluid interaction, computational structural dynamics and seismic wave propagation, inverse problems in structural dynamics and earthquake engineering, numerical methods in computational mechanics, and seismic hazard analysis.
