معرفی
Dr. Moura Mehravar is an Associate Professor in Geotechnical Engineering at the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Birmingham, within the School of Engineering. Her research focuses on computational mechanics, experimental modeling, and smart infrastructure solutions for geo-energy projects such as energy piles and offshore wind turbine foundations. She also explores biomaterial applications in ground engineering and develops novel sensing technologies for infrastructure condition assessment and sustainable design.
Her work integrates interdisciplinary approaches combining geotechnical engineering with materials science and environmental engineering. Key research areas include railway track substructure analysis, soil-water interaction monitoring, and advanced sensor technologies like polymer optical fiber Bragg gratings.
Her recent publications emphasize hybrid back-analysis techniques for infrastructure condition assessment, innovative solutions for offshore energy structures, and interface characterization of 3D-printed construction materials. These contributions align with global trends toward sustainable and smart infrastructure development.
Mehravar has collaborated on patents related to offshore energy foundations and actively participates in international conferences such as the International Symposium on Deformation Characteristics of Geomaterials and Transportation Geotechnics. Her research bridges theoretical modeling with practical applications in renewable energy and transportation sectors.
