Research Assistant, Department of Civil Engineering

• Jan 2016 - Jun 2022

• While serving as a Research Assistant at University of Kentucky, Department of Civil Engineering, I investigated and predicted rainfall induced landslide by conducting extensive research on multiple sites at Kentucky.• I performed wide-ranged testing and analysis, including preparing compacted specimen, performing tri-axial test, conducting finite element simulations using PLAXIS to evaluate slope behavior during a complete cycle of a season and predicting seasonal variation of in-situ hydrologic behavior using an analytical transient infiltration model in MATHCAD Prime 6.0. • I applied Web Soil Survey and HYDRUS to obtain in-situ soil hydrologic parameters as inputs for setting up test sites in PLAXIS. • I built model for test sites in PLAXIS and calibrated based on measured in-situ soil hydrologic data prior to analysis. Obtained in-situ soil hydrologic measurements using Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) data for test sites.
