Barbara G Simpson
Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioOur research group is made up of a small team of talented students with a wide range of skills and experience. We explore advanced computational and experimental methods to characterize structural response. Our aim is to develop innovative structural systems that improve structural performance and reduce the effects of natural hazards on the built environment.
Research areas include resilient and sustainable design and retrofit of building structures and offshore renewable energy systems, performance-based earthquake engineering, and next-generation computational modeling, including real-time hybrid simulation for fluid-structure interaction. -
Andronikos Skiadopoulos
Postdoctoral Scholar, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioAndronikos Skiadopoulos is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University. His current research focuses on ductile fracture mechanics of structural steel under extreme conditions.
During his PhD at EPFL, he designed, validated, and patented a steel moment connection typology through coordinated experimental testing, detailed fracture-mechanics-informed finite element analyses, and system-level simulations.
His broader interests include the analysis and design of steel structures, fracture-critical infrastructure systems, and performance-based approaches to resilient structural design.
He holds a PhD from EPFL (2022), and a Diploma in Structural Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, NTUA (2016). -
