Biography
Dr. Esteghamati is an assistant professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Utah State University. Dr. Esteghamati’s research group, “Stochastic Structures (StoStruct) Lab” , aims to address disaster resiliency problems in a holistic manner using a combination of data-driven modeling and engineering approaches. The ultimate objective of StoStruct lab is to improve the resiliency and sustainability of future communities through robust risk-informed models, from design to construction and operation of the built environment.
