Mariantonietta Morga

Dr. Mariantonietta Morga serves as Senior Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University within the School of Engineering and the Built Environment, a position held since October 2018. Her academic foundation includes a PhD in Sciences of Civil and Environmental Engineering from Politecnico di Bari, Italy (2008-2011).

Her research program centers on earthquake engineering with dual emphases on disaster resilience assessment and structural mitigation strategies. Key contributions address urban resilience to soil liquefaction events through UNDRR scorecard evaluation, development of retrofitting techniques for existing infrastructure, and optimization of vibration control systems like tuned mass dampers under diverse seismic conditions.

Dr. Morga maintains active scholarly engagement through publications in high-impact journals including Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering and The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings (2019-2021), alongside peer review activities for earthquake engineering publications. Her international co-authorship patterns indicate robust collaborative networks across the global seismic research community.
