Author Information

Dr. Serge Desjardins is Associate Professor and interim Chair of the Civil Engineering Department at the Université de Moncton. Holding a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering (Structures) from Carleton University, his research focuses on structural health monitoring using long-term vibration responses and automated operational modal analysis. As a member of the Ottawa-Carleton Bridge Research Institute, he has contributed to advancing vibration-based monitoring techniques, notably for the Confederation Bridge. Serge is Fellow of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering; he is a long-serving executive member of the local CSCE section (Eastern NB) and has served as the faculty advisor of the CSCE student chapter for the past decade and as the faculty advisor to the CSCE concrete canoe team since 2021. Serge has more than 20 years of combined academic and industry experience.  His industry experience includes working as structural design engineer on projects like the Ottawa International Airport expansion, the Croix-Bleue Medavie Stadium on the Université de Moncton campus, and several bridge rehabilitation and replacement projects in New-Brunswick. Dr. Gérard J. Poitras is Professor in the Civil Engineering Department and Dean of the Faculty of Engineering at the Université the Moncton. He completed his Doctorate studies in Engineering Sciences at the Université de Poitiers, France in 2002. His research interest includes wind-structure interaction, optimization of structures and dynamics of structures. He has more than 40 years of combined academic and industry experience in structural engineering. Professor Poitras is Fellow of Engineers Canada, Fellow of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE), and a past chair of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineers South-East NB section. In 2009, he received the Université de Moncton Award of Excellence in Teaching, and in 2014, the Outstanding Educator Award from the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientist of New Brunswick. Dr. Shahria Alam is Full Professor of Civil Engineering and Tier 1 Principal’s Research Chair in Resilient & Green Infrastructure at The University of British Columbia (UBC)’s Okanagan campus. He is serving as Director of the Green Construction Research & Training Center (GCRTC) at UBC. Dr. Alam is Vice President (Technical Program) of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE) and was the past Chair of the Engineering Mechanics and Materials Division of CSCE. He received his PhD in Civil Engineering from Western University in 2008. His research interests include smart and recycled materials and their structural engineering applications. He has published more than 400 peer-reviewed articles in these areas. He is the recipient of several national and international awards, including three best paper awards. Dr. Xiomara Sanchez is Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering and the D.C. Campbell Chair for Highway Construction and Pavement Research at the University of New Brunswick (UNB). She has been working in the field of pavement engineering for over 20 years. She received her doctoral degree in 2015 at the University of Waterloo. Her research focuses on the use and performance of recycled materials for road construction. At UNB, she is developing a research program to study the effective use of waste and by-product materials in pavements. She is the Asphalt/Asphalt Concrete sub-committee chair in CSCE’s Engineering Mechanics and Materials Division.
