Scholar-generated biography
Bassam Izzuddin is a computational structural mechanics researcher at Imperial College London, specializing in structural robustness and masonry structures. His work focuses on the progressive collapse of multi-storey buildings, nonlinear dynamic analysis of framed structures, and the mechanical behavior of masonry under cyclic loading. He has developed advanced models for steel and composite moment frames, including the panel zone and beam–column joints, and has explored the impact of fire and explosion on steel frames. His research also includes experimental studies on the mechanical properties of steel reinforcement at elevated temperatures and the use of mesoscale modeling for masonry arch bridges.
