The Structural Integrity and Health Monitoring group is led by two academics: Professor Ferri Aliabadi and Dr Zahra Sharif Khodaei. We have a dynamic group of post-doctoral researchers, PhD students and international collaborators. Our research covers a wide range of topics addressing challenges that exist for design, modelling and testing of next generation of smart aircraft structures. Our research activities can be categorized into:

• Structural health monitoring
• Structural Integrity and failure analysis
• Computational mechanics
• Structural reliability and Optimization
