university of Amirabir
The Civil Engineering lab at Amirkabir University features advanced facilities for
hands-on experiments and research in structural design and materials science
We are the “Advanced Transportation Infrastructures Modeling (ATIM)” Laboratory at the Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic) led by Prof. Fereidoon Moghadas Nejad. Our multidisciplinary scientific studies are organized around three research thrusts:
Thrust 1: Advanced Materials Technology
Thrust 2: Numerical Modeling and Simulation of Transportation Infrastructures
Thrust 3: Data-driven Modeling of Transportation Infrastructures
We are passionate about conducting fundamental research to advance the science of “transportation infrastructures” and develop integrative approaches for the exploration, design, fabrication, and computational modeling of materials and structures with advanced functionalities
