Bio


Prof. Miranda specializes in structural engineering with emphasis on performance-based earthquake engineering. Using measurements made on the ground and on instrumented structures he studies how structures respond to earthquakes and conducts research to assess the impacts of earthquakes on structures and on society in general. He then uses this knowledge to develop ways to design and build structures that will have an improved performance. Also interested in developing computer tools for automating analysis, design and construction.
