Biography:
Dr. Dipti Ranjan Sahoo received his B. E. (2001) in Civil Engineering from Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology (Utkal University), M. Tech. (2003) and Ph. D. (2008) in Structural Engineering specialization from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur. He worked as Post-doctoral Fellow in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington, USA for a period of two years. He started his academic career as Assistant Professor in the School of Infrastructure at IIT Bhubaneswar where he served for six months and then, joined as Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering, IIT Delhi in December, 2010. His areas of research include Dynamic and inelastic behavior of steel and reinforced concrete structures, Large-scale testing of structural systems, Performance-based plastic design, Finite element modeling, Seismic evaluation and strengthening, Supplemental damping and passive energy dissipation devices, and Steel fiber reinforced concrete structures. He is the reviewer of many international and national journals, and the member of several international and national professional organizations.
