UoN 3MT - Mohammad Saeed Masoomi, Dynamic soil-structure interaction

The Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment held their 2012 Three Minute Thesis heats on the 29th of May.

26 research higher degree students from across the Faculty participated in the event, which required the competitors to explain their research to a non-specialist audience in only three minutes.

Civil engineering PhD candidate Mohammad Saeed Masoomi received the runner-up prize for his presentation 'Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction.'

Mohammad Saeed is developing computer modelling techniques to gain a better understanding of soil and foundation behaviour during earthquakes in order to minimise their financial impact and loss of human lives.
