د.ايه الخوالدة

Dr. Ayah A. Alkhawaldeh is an expert structural engineer. She earned a PhD in structural engineering from the Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST) in August 2022. She specialized in assessing the structural performance of reinforced concrete elements exposed to environmental attacks, particularly fire accidents. Also specialized in the nonlinear analysis of structural members using finite element programs (i.e., ABAQUS). In her research area, Dr. Alkhawaldeh has conducted in-depth studies on the repair of deficient reinforced concrete members using advanced composite materials, computational mechanics, and data modeling. Dr. Alkhawaldeh has gained valuable experience as a structural engineer on funded projects, with extensive expertise in overseeing construction processes, collaborating with multiple agencies to devise optimal engineering solutions, and managing diverse construction and rehabilitation processes. Recently, Dr. Alkhawaldeh has focused on new research topics in sustainability, green concrete materials, and green constructions. Currently, she is working on research on 3D printing techniques. In addition to research, teaching has been an important part of her academic training. Dr. Alkhawaldeh has been teaching a variety of courses such as solid mechanics, structural analysis and reinforced concrete design, concrete behavior, materials science and earthquake engineering
