Dr. Stavros Syngellakis is Adjunct Professor of Materials and Structures at the Wessex Institute of Technology, Ashurst, Southampton, UK. He holds a Diploma in Civil Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece and a Ph D from Princeton University, USA. He is also a senior lecturer in the School of Engineering Sciences and a member of the Computational Engineering and Design research group at the University of Southampton. Dr. Jerome J. Connor is Professor Emeritus of Civil Engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research interests include computational mechanics, structural analysis, motion based structural design, and novel design methodologies for structural systems and has taught courses in computational mechanics and structural engineering. In recent years Connor’s work has involved motion based design and damage assessment of engineering materials and he is directing a number of projects related to theapplications of structural control to large civil structures as well as investigating methods to quantify damage in engineering materials.
