Research Fellow (Earthquake Engineering)

The Institute of Catastrophe Risk Management (ICRM) was launched in January 2010 and aims to be the first multi-disciplinary and leading catastrophe risk management research institute of its kind in Asia. The Institute aims to help the regional and international communities to better understand the characteristics of Asia’s risks related to natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, typhoons, floods and droughts.

We are looking for a Research Fellow in Earthquake Engineering to support ICRM’s work in NatCat exposure and risk, as particularly related to earthquake damage and losses to building stocks. The role will focus on modelling of ground motions during earthquakes and structural responses under earthquake-induced ground motions.

• Modelling propagation of earthquake motion from source to site
• Perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA)
• Perform structural calculations to quantify da...
