PhD Candidate, Ali Fallah Yeznabad receives the 2020 Canadian Dam Association (CDA) Graduate Student Award of Merit
The Canadian Dam Association offers annually scholarships to graduate students attending a Canadian university or college whose program of study focuses on dam safety and/or the management of dams. The CDA Selection Committee was impressed by Ali’s high quality submission and hard work.
Ali is the first student from Western University to get recognized by the CDA. He would like to share his success with his supervisor, Dr. Hesham El Naggar and co-supervisor Dr. Sheri Molnar, Earth Science.
Ali and his research group are working on the "Metro Vancouver Microzonarion" (funded by EMBC and ICLR), which evaluate different hazards associated with ground shakings in Greater Vancouver, BC. Ali’s research looks at seismic hazard for slopes and earth-fill dams and whether the sloping grounds and dams will be safe during earthquakes. More information on Ali’s research visit https://metrovanmicromap.ca/
Congratulations Ali!
