​I am an Engineer at Dunn Associates, Inc. and designing multi-story concrete shear wall building, mid-rise steel building, and tilt-up concrete wall warehouses is a major part of my work at Dunn Associates. If you are a structural engineer and would like to collaborate or discuss the growing skyline of Salt Lake City, feel free to contact me.
​
I have successfully defended my Ph.D. dissertation in October, 2021. The focuses of my Ph.D. is on the design of fragility-informed seismic design of post-tensioned concrete bridge bents. The research work involved non-linear three-dimensional modeling and dynamic analyses of full scale bridges in OpenSees. Developing 3-D rocking post-tensioned bridge column model and validating it against various laboratory tests is an important part of my research.
​
I have been actively developing tools to visualize OpenSees models using Python. On this website, I will share my knowledge on OpenSees modeling through various examples, explaining the thought process behind complex OpenSees models. This will be helpful for new learners.
