Nikola Blagojevic
Postdoctoral Scholar, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioNikola Blagojević is a postdoctoral scholar at the Stanford Urban Resilience Initiative (SURI) within the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University. His research focuses on regional recovery modeling and urban disaster resilience assessment.
As part of his doctoral work, Nikola developed pyrecodes, an open-source software for simulating how cities recover from disasters. His broader research interests span earthquake engineering, software development, post-disaster data collection, and climate risk and resilience assessment.
In addition to his academic research, Nikola has collaborated with the insurance industry to improve tools for assessing business interruption losses.
He holds a Ph.D. from ETH Zurich (2023) and an M.Sc. (2016) and B.Sc. (2015) in Structural Engineering from the University of Belgrade, Serbia. -
Juan Blanch
Sr Research Engineer
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on the design of navigation integrity algorithms for safety critical applications (like air navigation and autonomous driving). I am interested in both the design of practical algorithms that provide the required safety margins, and in the theoretical limits on the performance of the integrity monitoring algorithms.
