Field of Active Research
Dr. Pezeshk’s
research interests encompass all phases of engineering seismology and
earthquake engineering; in particular, ground motion prediction, site
effects, site characterization, GPR, probabilistic seismic hazard analyses,
and strong ground motions and their impact on structures.
Dr. Pezeshk has also a long record
of research in structural optimization, in particular, performance-based
structural optimization.
Dr. Pezeshk's research in Ground
Motion Prediction Equations (GMPEs) has been implemented in the USGS
hazard maps 2008 and 2014:
and U.S. NRC and EPRI:
