Dr. Anam joined UAP in 2000 with an excellent academic background.
Before joining UAP, he worked as a Lecturer at BUET, Teaching and
Research Assistant at UT Austin and Texas A&M University.
Dr. Anam's main research interest is based on structural dynamics,
including earthquake engineering, vehicular vibration, ocean wave
mechanics, offshore structures, dynamic soil-structure interaction,
random vibrations, etc. He has developed theoretical and numerical
methods for the calculation of nonlinear wave forces, wave kinematics,
foundation stiffness and probabilistic modeling. His works have been
published in the journals and monographs of the American Society of
Civil Engineers (ASCE), American Society of Mechanical Engineers
(ASME), International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers (ISOPE)
and presented at various international conferences across the world.
At UAP, Dr. Anam teaches various theoretical and sessional courses on
Engineering Mechanics, Structural Analysis and Design. He serves in
the editorial boards of the CE departmental Technical Bulletin and the
Journal of Civil and Environmental Engineering. He has led the
research work on structural dynamics and earthquake engineering at UAP
and has supervised thesis works of final year students on the dynamic
analyses of Reinforced Concrete buildings, bridges, concrete
pavements, steel towers, soil-structure interaction, probabilistic
structural dynamics, structural control, ductility, seismic detailing
and retrofit of Reinforced Concrete frames and flat slabs, as well as
masonry structures, developing several computer programs as well as
experimental models on linear and nonlinear structural dynamic
analyses. Results of his research works at UAP (in collaboration with
UAP students and faculty members) have been published in the
proceedings of international conferences at Canada, Australia, China,
South Africa, Thailand, India and Bangladesh.
Dr. Anam has served as the principal investigator and main resource person in government funded research projects and training courses on seismic analysis and structural dynamics.
