Author Information

Dr. Samui is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at NIT Patna, India. He received his PhD in Geotechnical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Science Bangalore, India, in 2008. His research interests include geohazard, earthquake engineering, concrete technology, pile foundation and slope stability, and application of AI for solving different problems in civil engineering. Dr. Samui is a repeat Elsevier editor but also a prolific contributor to journal papers, book chapters, and peer-reviewed conference proceedings. Prof. Sunita Kumari earned her Ph.D in Civil Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. Prof. Sunita had joined National Institute of Technology Patna as a faculty in 2006 and presently she is holding position of Professor in the department of Civil Engineering. She has supervised many PhD, post graduates and graduates students with teaching experience of more than 17 years in field of Geotechnical Engineering and Earthquake engineering. Her fields of specialization and interest include: Modeling of liquefaction and remedial measures, liquefaction behaviour of fine grained soil, practical application of soft computing in engineering, Coupled soil- fluid interaction, Coupled finite- Infinite Element solution of geotechnical problems. Prof. Sunita has developed modeling procedures for determination of response to dynamic behaviour of soil. She has also addressed a shortage of existing empirical, semi-empirical, and simplified equations for the evaluation of geo-risks. In addition to the collaborative work that motivated the development of these new modeling procedures in geotechnical engineering, she is also involved in applied and collaborative work and research projects that focus on numerical models. In addition, she also developed Finite element based code for determination of seismic liquefaction potential of soil with infinite boundary. Vladimir Makarov is a Professor, and head of the laboratory of Geomechanics of Highly Compressed Rock & Rock Mass at Far-Eastern Federal University, Vladivostock, Russia. He is also an Honorary Professor at the University of Science and Technology of China (Beijing). His research is currently focused on stress state determination. Pradeep Kurup is a Distinguished University Professor and Department Chair in Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Francis College of Engineering, University of Massachusetts, Lowell, USA. His research interests include multi-sensor data fusion, site characterization and monitoring, finite element modeling, and soil-structure interaction.
