Arif Riyad Email and Phone Number

As a Civil Engineer, I have diverse experience in research, construction, design, and project management. I have worked on various projects in different countries, including Bangladesh and South Korea.Throughout my education, I have worked on several research projects. Using multiple design methods, I worked on the multi-objective optimization of a tuned mass damper using NSGA-ii (Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm). I examined the effect of soil-structure interaction with multi-adaptive mass damper systems on some important benchmark structures. Additionally, I assisted in studying system identification and vulnerability assessment of electrical cabinet facilities in nuclear power plants. I also helped in the multi-objective optimum material design project for latex-modified concrete overlay.Currently, I am working as a researcher at EIRC, South Korea, Researching Wind turbines. Previously I was in charge of the Design and Analysis team at Bangladesh Steel and Re-rolling Mills Limited (BSRM). I managed the 'Strategic Projects' design and analysis team there. I analyzed and checked civil and mechanical drawings for an Induction Furnace Building and a Rolling Mill in Chittagong, Bangladesh, by collaborating with RSA, India, and Danieli, Italy, for this project. I was also part of the engineering management team for the same project.Additionally, I worked as a Junior Research Engineer for the Housing and Building Research Institute, SATREPS-TSUIB project. In that project, I worked on building survey and report preparation for the Visual rating (VR) method to quickly assess unreinforced masonry (URM) wall buildings. I also conducted a fire hazard analysis of petrol pumps according to the 'Importance factor' provided by Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC)-2020. I also worked as a Junior Engineer for Steel Structure Fabrication at Aju ENG, South Korea, and as a Research Assistant for the Structural System Laboratory (SSL) at Kunsan National University.I have used various software throughout my career, including ABAQUS for FEM modeling, ETABS, SAP2000 for structural analysis and design, and AutoCAD for drafting and detailing.I am a Bangladeshi native with an IELTS score of 7, demonstrating my English proficiency. I understand Hindi very well and can speak a bit of Korean. As a Muslim, I can read Arabic but have limited understanding.I love animals and am a member of the Rabbit Welfare Association Bangladesh. I enjoy playing and watching football, and I can also play badminton. I am an intermediate chess player with a rating of 1500+ in rapid.
