My full CV

Professional/Teaching Experience

  • I am originally from Togo Republic. I am fluent both in French and English languages. I am ’Maître de Conférences’ from French Ministry of Education since February 2002. Currently I am a Senior Lecturer and Past Head, Department of Civil Engineering, at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, Ghana and have been since Jan. 2001. Prior to this, I worked for 9 years as a Dosent, Research Associate and Interpreter at Dniepropetrovsk Civil Engineering Institute and National Mining University of Ukraine. My research includes theoretical and experimental analysis of the influence of concrete creep on the long duration nonlinear flexural characteristics and on the exponents of limit states of reinforced precast and pre-stressed concrete various structural members as beams, slabs, columns, shells, load-bearing wall elements, electric poles and trusses, and is oriented to the following areas:

    • life-cycle analysis, optimization, performance-based design, reliability, and resilience of structures and infrastructure systems
    • advanced nonlinear modeling and high performance computing in theory of structures
    • nano materials, with focus on construction materials in Civil Engineering

    I am member of professional organizations and I have written several papers for journals and books
