Research Interests:

Design Optimization under Uncertainty:
Development of new methodologies for design optimization under uncertainty explicitly considering risk and applying the newly developed techniques in engineering including civil, chemical, electrical and environmental engineering problems are some of our main objectives. Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the many applications, much of the work has been done in collaboration with colleagues from both inside and outside the university.

In addition, I am also working in the Application of Intelligent Systems, to hydrology and water resources, decision making in health, control of satellite communications, and fault detection analysis.
