Esra Mete Güneyisi

Professor Esra Mete Güneyisi is affiliated with Gaziantep University since 2020, serving within the Faculty of Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering. She holds a PhD and MSc in Civil Engineering from Boğaziçi University (2007 and 2002, respectively) and a BSc from the same institution (2000). Her research focuses on seismic analysis, composite structures, sustainable construction, and advanced material modeling.

• Education: PhD (Boğaziçi University, 2007), MSc (Boğaziçi University, 2002), BSc (Boğaziçi University, 2000)
• Professional Roles: Professor at Gaziantep University (2020–present), Associate Professor (2013–2020), Doctor Lecturer (2008–2013), Research Assistant at Boğaziçi University (2001–2008)

Her research integrates artificial intelligence and finite element analysis for structural design, with a focus on reinforced concrete, steel structures, and seismic retrofitting. She has contributed to self-healing concrete and recycled aggregate applications. Her 15 most recent articles explore topics like rubberized CFST columns, eccentric bracing effects, and AI-driven design models, spanning civil engineering, materials science, and structural safety.

She has supervised 19 PhD and 49 Master’s theses, addressing nonlinear structural analysis, seismic retrofitting, and composite materials. Her projects include TÜBİTAK-funded studies on structural behavior and international collaborations like the PROHITECH initiative. Memberships include the Structural Steel Association (2010) and the TMMOB-Chamber of Civil Engineers (2007).
