Emrah Erduran

Dr. Emrah Erduran is an Associate Professor at OsloMet – Storbyuniversitetet's Faculty of Technology, Art and Design, affiliated with the Department of Built Environment and the Structural Engineering Research Group (SERG). His work focuses on structural health monitoring, fatigue modeling, and seismic risk assessment.

• Specializes in bridge diagnostics using vehicle-mounted sensors
• Develops advanced continuum mechanics models for material fatigue
• Investigates earthquake-induced damage through wavelet analysis
• Active in railway bridge dynamics and masonry structure behavior
• Collaborates on multidisciplinary projects with international researchers

Recent research trends include:

• Damage detection via contact point accelerations and curvature analysis
• High-cycle fatigue modeling for ductile metals and aluminum alloys
• Wavelet-based approaches for structural monitoring
• Optimal sensor placement in uncertain environments

Current projects address floating photovoltaic structures and historical masonry preservation. His work combines experimental validation with sophisticated numerical modeling across civil and mechanical engineering domains.
