Structural engineer Ove Arup, 2005—2006. Assistant professor University Minnesota, since 2010.
Achievements include development of a novel probabilistic theory for the reliability-based design of various engineering structures, which include buildings, bridges, aircraft, ships, micro-electronic devices, etc. Development of a design formula for the metal-composite hybrid joints, which allows the designer to extrapolate the small-scale lab tests to full-scale design.
