8th International Conference on Advanced Composite Materials in Bridges and Structures: Volume 1: 278 (Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering, 278) [Hardcover] [Sep 27, 2022] Benmokrane, Brahim; Mohamed, Khaled; Farghaly, Ahmed and Mohamed, Hamdy

Professor Brahim Benmokrane (Ph.D., P.Eng.) holds the prestigious Tier-1 Canada Research Chair in Advanced Composite Materials for Civil Structures and the Senior Industrial Research Chair in Innovative FRP Reinforcement for Sustainable Concrete Infrastructure at the Department of Civil & Building Engineering at University of Sherbrooke (Sherbrooke, QC, Canada).  Professor Benmokrane is one of the world’s leaders in the field of structural concrete internally reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement. His research has significantly influenced the development of concrete structures reinforced with FRP bars, building codes, design specifications, and FRP reinforcement’s practical use in North America and beyond. His research and professional services have been recognized with several awards. Some of his more note-worthy awards have come from ACI, CSCE, CSA, EIC, OIQ,  IIFC, NSERC, and the Royal Society of Canada (Fellow of Academy of Science). He has published over 700 papers and books and has given over 250 lectures worldwide. He currently leads a research group of 36 and has trained 170 researchers. More than 30 of his former graduate students now hold faculty positions in Canada and abroad.

Dr. Khaled Mohamed is a Research Associate in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Sherbrooke, Canada, and an R&D engineer in Pultrall/V-ROD, Canada. He received his MSc from Assiut University, Egypt, and Ph.D. from the University of Sherbrooke, Canada. His research interest includes the structural behavior and durability of reinforced concrete structures reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymers.
