PhD Project:

Evaluation of the post earthquake fire resistance of structures

The aim of the overall OPENSEES (Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulation) project is to develop a common framework for earthquake and fire analysis of structures with nonlinear finite element methods. The specific project will focus in developing object-oriented and parallel techniques and algorithms in order to achieve high performance computing and analyse large structural problems in a more efficient manner.
