Bocchini's Research Group
Aman Karamlou
I was born in Tehran (Iran) in 1983, and finished my education up to master’s degree there. Now I am a research assistant in the department of civil and environmental engineering of Lehigh University working under the supervision of Prof. Bocchini. I have experienced different research fields during my masters and PhD career. After conducting an extensive experimental work on RC shear walls, now I am performing numerical research in the field of resilience and transportation networks.
