Author Information

Rafid Al-Khoury is a Senior researcher in computational mechanics in the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences at Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands. His main area of interest is in computational mechanics with emphasis on computational geoenvironment. In particular, he is a developer of analytical, semi-analytical and numerical models for wave propagation in layered systems, multiphase flow and heat and fluid flow in shallow geothermal systems. The main focus of his research work is the development of innovative models and efficient computational procedures capable of simulating physical processes occurring in complicated geometry using minimal computational efforts. Along this line, Dr. Al-Khoury has published several models for different fields of computational mechanics, including wave propagation, parameter identification, fracturing porous media, and geothermics.
