Composite Structural Insulated Panels Under Multi-Hazard Loads
At UAB, I investigated the resistance of composite structural insulated panels under hurricanes, including large pressure and high-velocity impact, using HyperMesh and LS-DYNA. I also worked on building structural design approaches based on multi-hazard reliability analysis and ANSYS simulation.
