Research Interests

My research interests lie in the interdisciplinary area of earthquake engineering and engineering seismology, which include stochastic ground motion simulation, ground motion modelling, probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA), ground motion selecting & scaling, etc. My current research focus is the non-ergodic PSHA based on the simulated broadband ground motions.
