Grigorios Tsinidis

Grigorios Tsinidis is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Thessaly, specializing in Geotechnical Computational Engineering and Soil-Structure Interaction. His research focuses on the seismic response and vulnerability of underground structures, tunnels, and bridge foundations through numerical and experimental analyses.

• Education: Diploma (2007), Postgraduate Diploma (2008), PhD (2015) in Civil Engineering from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
• Current Role: Scientific director of the project “INFRARES – Improving the resilience of transport infrastructure to natural hazards” funded by the Hellenic Foundation for Research & Innovation.

His publications (>55) emphasize seismic fragility of tunnels, multi-hazard bridge resilience, and risk assessment frameworks. He has served as a reviewer for 26 international journals and worked as a consultant in Austria for seismic design of infrastructure, including railway insulation systems. His recent work integrates AI for geotechnical risk modeling and multi-hazard interaction effects.
