Dr. Denise-Penelope N. Kontoni obtained her Diploma in Civil Engineering from the University of Patras, Greece (grade: excellent, ranked 1st), and her Ph.D. (doctor of civil engineering) in structural engineering also from the University of Patras, Greece. She is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering of the University of the Peloponnese, Greece. She has also been teaching for 19 years in postgraduate programs of the Hellenic Open University, Greece, and she has supervised many M.Sc. theses in the postgraduate programs such as “Earthquake Engineering and Earthquake Resistant Structures”, “Engineering Construction Management”, etc. She is the author of 120 scientific articles in refereed international scientific journals and in proceedings of international conferences, which have received many citations from other researchers. She is a reviewer in many international scientific journals (e.g., “Certificate of outstanding contribution in reviewing” from “Engineering Structures”-Elsevier). She is editor and guest editor in refereed international scientific journals and has been a member of the scientific committee in many international conferences. Her research interests are focused on structural dynamics, earthquake engineering, finite element method (FEM), boundary element method (BEM), soil-structure interaction, vibration control, computer-aided structural analysis, wave propagation, elastodynamics, elastoplasticity, computer programming in civil engineering, etc.
Dr. Rathish Kumar Pancharathi is currently a Professor and Head of the Department of Civil Engineering, National Institute of Technology Warangal.
