Asal Bidarmaghz

Dr. Asal Bidarmaghz is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney). Her expertise lies in Energy Geotechnics and Underground Climate Change, focusing on energy geostructures design, urban subsurface thermal management, and synergies between underground and above-ground infrastructure. She holds a position at the Kensington Campus in the Civil Engineering Building (Room CE502).

Her research integrates hydro-thermo-mechanical analysis of soils and geotechnical systems, with a particular emphasis on renewable energy applications such as energy tunnels and geothermal systems. Dr. Bidarmaghz has contributed to advancements in thermal testing devices, subsurface thermal modeling, and sustainable infrastructure design. Her work addresses challenges in urban geothermal potential, energy efficiency in underground facilities, and the interplay between natural convection and geothermal systems.

Publications highlight her exploration of coupled thermal-hydraulic processes, energy tunnel optimization, and Bayesian parameter estimation in subsurface modeling. While no awards or grants are explicitly listed, her extensive scholarly output reflects a strong focus on innovative solutions for climate-resilient infrastructure. Collaborations likely involve interdisciplinary teams addressing urban subsurface dynamics and geothermal energy integration.
