معرفی
Dr. Jack Denny is a Lecturer in Structural Engineering at the University of Southampton's School of Engineering. His research focuses on blast effects on structures, blast injury modeling, and urban blast resilience, combining experimental testing and computational modeling. He holds a PhD from the University of Southampton (2017) and an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowship. His work involves collaborations with institutions like the University of Cape Town and the American University of Beirut, addressing urban explosion challenges through interdisciplinary projects.
Key research initiatives include co-founding the International Blast Injury Research Network (IBRN) and leading studies on the 2020 Beirut Blast's spatial and contextual impacts. He also investigates novel sensing technologies for blast loading measurement via Royal Society-funded projects. Teaching responsibilities span structural design, mechanics, and engineering fundamentals.
Notable contributions include forensic engineering analyses of mass casualty events and development of sheltering guidelines for explosive threats. His work bridges engineering, medicine, and policy to enhance urban resilience against blast threats.
