Professor Sukru Guzey

Lyles School of Civil Engineering
Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA

Biography:
Dr. Guzey received his PhD in Civil Engineering from University of Minnesota in 2006, his MS and BS in Civil Engineering from Middle East Technical University (METU), Turkey, in 2002 and 2000, respectively.
Before joining the Lyles School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University, Dr. Guzey worked at AEC Engineering, Minneapolis, MN (2013-2014) as a senior structural engineer and advanced design and analysis team leader. From 2011-2013, he worked as a senior structural engineer at Uni-Systems, Minneapolis, MN. From 2006-2011, Dr. Guzey was a structural engineer at AEC Engineering. He is a registered professional engineer in the State of Minnesota.
Dr. Guzey’s research has been primarily focused on structural and continuum mechanics, computational solid mechanics, and discontinuous Galerkin methods. He has been working on design and repair of shell structures and fixed process equipment to develop safe, reliable and economical engineering solutions.
