BIO
I am working as an adjunct research professor at the Western University, Canada. My research focuses on seismic hazard analysis due to natural and induced earthquakes, developing ground-motion prediction equations, simulation of earthquake ground-motions, site characterization and seismic microzonation. Currently, I am working on a research project with a goal of incorporating 3D basin effects into seismic zonation maps for Metro Vancouver, British Columbia. Over the last five years, I was collaborating within a “Canadian Induced Seismicity Collaboration” research program. The project was focused on understanding the mechanisms and hazards associated with industry-related induced seismicity.
