Milad Bazli

Dr. Milad Bazli is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Science and Technology at Charles Darwin University. He also holds an Honorary Senior Lecturer position at the School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering, University of Queensland. With a PhD in Mechanical and microstructural properties of FRP composites from Monash University (completed in 2.4 years), Dr. Bazli specializes in advanced composite manufacturing, durability performance, and sustainable construction materials, particularly Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (FRP) and Seawater Sea Sand Concrete.

• Education:
  • PhD, Monash University (2018–2020)
  • Master, Sharif University of Technology (2016–2018)

His research focuses on structural performance under harsh environmental conditions, including elevated temperatures and marine exposure. He has secured over $3.5M in external funding as a Chief Investigator and is recognized in the Stanford/Elsevier Top 2% Scientists List. Dr. Bazli's work aligns with several UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in sustainable infrastructure and climate action.

Key trends in his publications include the use of hybrid FRP systems, machine learning for material performance prediction, and durability studies under extreme conditions. His articles frequently address seawater-sea sand concrete applications, fire-retardant coatings, and low-cycle fatigue behavior of composite materials.
