Evangelos Katsanos is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), where he contributes to research and education in structural engineering and safety. He is affiliated with the Structures and Safety research group and actively supervises PhD students. His work spans advanced computational methods for structural monitoring and risk assessment. Research Interests: His expertise lies in structural dynamics, modal analysis, state estimation, and structural health monitoring of civil and offshore infrastructure. He applies physics-informed models and data-driven techniques to assess structural response under extreme loading conditions such as earthquakes, storms, and wave impacts. His research integrates finite element modeling with Kalman filtering methods for enhanced system identification and damage detection. The recent publications highlight a strong trend toward physics-informed and data-driven structural health assessment, particularly for offshore and wind energy infrastructure. Topics include joint input-state estimation, slamming loads on offshore jackets, and damage identification using Kalman filters. These works emphasize robust modeling under uncertainty and real-world applicability in extreme environments. Scientific Awards: No specific awards are mentioned in the provided text. Advising and Grants: Evangelos Katsanos is the main supervisor of PhD student Al-Hagri, A., and co-supervisor or collaborator on several research projects. He is Principal Investigator (PI) or co-PI on multiple funded research initiatives, including projects on physics-informed structural health assessment of offshore infrastructures, residual bearing capacity of damaged concrete beams, and quality assurance for construction 3D printers. These projects reflect his leadership in interdisciplinary and applied research with societal impact. Labs and Teams: He is part of the research environment at DTU Construct, specifically within the Structures and Safety group, which focuses on resilience, risk assessment, and advanced monitoring of civil and mechanical systems. His collaborations extend to national and international partners in offshore and wind energy engineering.
