Dr Hoofar Shokravi


My name is Hoofar Shokravi, and I am super psyched that you are reading this!

Professionally, I started Bridge Engineering in 2005, working by COWI A/S as Quality as a client consultant member and the Superstructure Department’s youngest member on the Urmia Lake Causeway project. Later, I stopped working and joined Universiti Teknologi Malaysia to follow my passion. I did my PhD in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of Bridges. But I was always thinking about a more sustainable method for the Health Monitoring of bridges. The available methods have shortcomings that prevent their widespread application. In 2018 I started the review of the literature on available methods of SHM and tried to collect the shortcomings of why these methods are not used as a robust and reliable method trusted by practitioners and academia. Then I started a study that could alleviate these shortcomings to the highest possible extent. To deal with these issues, two review papers were published showing that the available method cannot deal with the problems faced. So, searching for potential methods for the application of autonomous vehicles . . . will be continued
