Dr. Sotirios Argyroudis is a Reader (Associate Professor) of Infrastructure Engineering at Brunel University London within the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, College of Engineering, Design and Physical Sciences. He leads the infrastructure risk and resilience research group and serves as Coordinator of the Horizon PORTAL project and deputy Scientific Coordinator of the Horizon/UKRI ReCharged project. He co-founded bridgeUkraine.org and co-leads metaInfrastructure.org, both initiatives focused on critical infrastructure recovery and sustainability. With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Argyroudis specializes in vulnerability, disaster risk, and resilience assessment of critical infrastructure exposed to multiple hazards including floods and earthquakes. His educational background includes: Graduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching, University of Surrey, UK (2021) PhD in Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece (2010) BSc in Geology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece (2008) MEng in Civil Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece (2000) Dr. Argyroudis' research focuses on infrastructure risk and resilience assessment under multiple hazards including earthquakes, floods, and climate change effects. His work spans vulnerability assessment of transportation networks, bridges, tunnels, and urban systems, with particular emphasis on developing frameworks for climate-resilient infrastructure. He integrates emerging technologies like AI and remote sensing to enhance infrastructure monitoring and decision-making processes. His research has significant applications in disaster risk reduction, post-conflict recovery, and sustainable infrastructure development aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals. His recent publications demonstrate a clear trend toward integrating climate adaptation with infrastructure resilience, with increasing focus on multi-hazard approaches, digital technologies, and sustainability metrics. His work spans transportation infrastructure (railways, bridges, tunnels), energy systems, and urban networks, with growing emphasis on post-conflict recovery applications as seen in his bridgeUkraine.org initiative. The publications show strong international collaboration across Europe, North America, and Asia. Dr. Argyroudis has received notable recognition including: 2022 European Council on Computing in Construction (EC3) Thorpe Medal Top 2% most highly cited scientists for 2021, 2022, and 2023 (Elsevier/Stanford list) Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, UK (FHEA) Member of the Institution of Civil Engineers (UK), CEng, MICE Dr. Argyroudis actively supervises PhD students across multiple institutions including University Sains Malaysia, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, and Democritus University of Thrace. His current research portfolio includes significant grants such as the Horizon Europe-funded PORTAL and ReCharged projects, the Brunel BRIEF AWARDS-funded CCRI project, and the HORIZON-INFRA-funded SCOUR&SHAKE project. He serves as a reviewer for EPSRC, the European Commission, and numerous scientific journals, contributing to the advancement of infrastructure resilience research globally. He is a key member of Brunel's Centre for Flood Risk and Resilience and the Research Group of Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering. Through his leadership of the PORTAL project and co-leadership of metaInfrastructure.org, he fosters international collaboration on sustainable and resilient infrastructure solutions. His work with bridgeUkraine.org demonstrates practical application of research to urgent global challenges, connecting academic research with real-world infrastructure recovery needs.
