Biography

Mostafa Hassani Niaki received a Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering from Semnan University, Semnan, Iran, in 2017. Currently, he is a research associate at University of Mazandaran. His Ph.D. research focused on the field of reinforced polymer concrete. His fields of interest include polymer concrete, experimental mechanics, composites and nanocomposites. His current focus is on implementing deep learning-based methods in polymer concretes. He has authored several scientific articles and one national patent in polymer concrete.

Morteza Ghorbanzadeh Ahangari received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from University of Mazandaran in 2005 and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Semnan University in 2013. In 2014 he joined the faculty member of the University of Mazandaran and is now associated Professor of Mechanical Engineering. He has been researching polymer composites and concretes since 2008 and has published more than 100 ISI papers in these fields. In 2021, he was introduced as a list of highly cited researchers. He has also been selected as a top researcher three times. He spent two years as the director of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and two years as the Vice Chancellor for Research and Technology of the Faculty of Engineering in University of Mazandaran.
