šŸ‘Øā€šŸ«Professional SummaryĀ šŸŒŸ

Seyyed Ali Mousavi Gavgani is a dedicated Ph.D. candidate in Structural Engineering at Kharazmi University, Tehran, Iran, with a focus on Semi-Active Control of Offshore Platforms using Inertial-Based Dampers. His academic journey includes an outstanding Master’s degree in Structural Engineering from the University of Maragheh, where he explored Optimum Control of High Rise Buildings with Magneto-Rheological Dampers. Seyyed Ali has earned numerous honors and awards, showcasing his exceptional talents and commitment to academic excellence. His extensive list of publications, both in journals and conference proceedings, reflects his contributions to the field of structural engineering. As an active member of the academic community, he has served as a teaching and research assistant, displaying his dedication to advancing knowledge in structural control and engineering.

I currently work on the structural control due to seismic and wave excitations, using active (mainly tuned mass damper) and semi-active (mainly Magneto-rheological dampers) control devices. Also, i work on health monitoring of bridges with new methods (mainly signal processing methods). For the future i hope to generalize the works on real structures with considering all uncertainties.
