I am a postdoctoral researcher in structural engineering at Ghent University. My research focuses on the analysis and design of structures exposed to single and multiple hazards, considering trade-offs introduced by fire and seismic safety, sustainability, and resilience. In this process, I use reliability- and risk-based methods to handle uncertainties in natural hazards, man-made hazards, structural response, and hazard-induced consequences. Moreover, I employ optimisation techniques to manage multiple design criteria and uncover solutions beyond the realm of conventional experience and judgment.
