Welcome to Ehsan Seyedi Hosseininia’s Website!
I am currently a full Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering in Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (FUM), Iran. I got my Bsc in Civil Engineering from FUM in 2001. I obtained my Msc in 2003 and then received Ph.D degree in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering in 2008 from University of Tehran. I also spent a six-month sabbatical at Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chaussées (LCPC) at Paris working on the stability of deep tunnel face. I started my academic career as a faculty member in 2009.
I have several publications in highly-ranked journals in different fields of geotechnical engineering such as ring footings, analysis of reinforced soils as a two-phase system (macroscopic view), blast in soils, pipelines crossing faults, and soil constitutive modeling. I am also expert in simulation of granular materials behavior using Discrete Element Method (DEM) by focusing on particle shape, fabric anisotropy, grain crushing, unsaturated soils, cemented soils, critical state soil mechanics, and micromechanics. I have several national patents such as helical piles and insitu ground investigation instruments. I am the reviewer of many national and international journals in different fields of geotechnical engineering.
In addition to academic activities, I have worked more than 20 years as a senior/professional geotechnical engineer/consultant for several companies in the fields of electricity, oil-gas and marine projects focusing on piling, retaining walls, marine geotechnics, urban excavations, and geotechnical earthquake engineering.
