Personal Statement
Currently available PhD studentships - A fully-funded PhD studentship to investigate the behaviour of suction caisson foundations under pressure cycling. |
I joined Strathclyde in 2020 as a Chancellor's Fellow (Lecturer), and was previously a Junior Research Fellow at Wolfson College, Oxford. My research is focused on developing innovative offshore geotechnics solutions to prepare for the digitalisation age. This includes developing AI-driven modelling tools and novel sensor-based solutions to help engineers improve their decision-making in offshore ground modelling, site investigation planning, foundation design optimisation and installation risk management.

Research Opportunities
I am currently accepting undergraduate/Masters final year project students and PhD applicants who are interested in working in the areas of machine learning in geotechnical engineering, offshore soil-structure interaction and automated ground modelling, amongst others (see list of research interests below). If you are interested in doing research with me, please contact me by email with your background and an outline of your proposed research topic.
Research Interests
Machine learning:
- Bayesian Optimisation
- Physics-informed Machine Learning
- Multi-fidelity data fusion
Offshore soil-structure interaction:
