I am currently performing structural vibration and noise analysis using Finite Element Analysis techniques. Structures have included floating slab track for train lines in Australia, Taiwan and Doha. Analysis includes estimation of moving load deflection analysis and assessing the vibration isolation achieved by these structural systems.

Structures have included floating slab track for train lines in Australia, Taiwan and Doha. Analysis includes estimation of moving load deflection analysis and assessing the vibration isolation achieved by these structural systems. The analysis has required the development of numerical techniques for vibration response analysis for a range of frequencies. These have required the adoption of recent advances in personal computer processor instructions, including vectorization and multi-threaded computation, to cope with the increasing computation effort that is required.

Port capacity and marine logistics modelling. Recent projects have included:* Port Hedland Ultimate Development Plan capacity assessment (2005-2012), * Maputo, Mozambique 75km vessel departure channel design (2011-2014) by applying recent Under Keel Clearance management approach to develop a more rational design criteria for the channel depth design, which provided for significant savings in the dredging costs by relating the required depth to the vessel's required draft when… Show more Port capacity and marine logistics modelling.
