Research interests:
- Developing advanced seismology techniques for detailed seismic building assessment
- Feasibility study for an earthquake early warning system for New Zealand
- Developing efficient signal processing and analysis techniques to better understand the rupture physics of past large New Zealand earthquakes
- Ground motion simulations for past and future large New Zealand earthquakes and their impact for civil defence, national responders and engineering communities (landslide and tsunami, geotechnical and structural)
Current projects
- Structural health monitoring of Wellington buildings, funded by “It’s Our Fault” itsourfault.org.nz
- “Fault slip and ground shaking in the next Alpine Fault earthquake”, 2020 Marsden funded research in collaboration with Prof John Townend (VUW) co-leader of the project and Associate Professor Kasper Van Wijk (The University of Auckland), Dr Calum Chamberlain (Victoria University of Wellington), Dr Emily Warren-Smith (GNS Science), Dr Marine Denolle ( University of Washington), Professor Andrew Curtis (University of Edinburgh), Associate Professor Miyake (The University of Tokyo)
- Earthquake and tsunami early warning for New Zealand, funded by RNC2 (https://resiliencechallenge.nz/) in collaboration with Victoria University (Prof Martha Savage) EQC (eqc.govt.nz – Sarah-Jayne McCurrach), NEMA (https://www.civildefence.govt.nz/) and Massey University (Dr Julia Becker and the Crisis Lab http://crisislab.org.nz/)
