Selected National and European Projects
1 Foundation design in seismically "problematic" soils under strong ground shaking
2 Seismic hazard harmonization in Europe

4 Assessment of expected seismic motions, neotectonic setting and related geohazards along the alternative TAP pipeline path in the brader Pageo - Symvolon area.
Teaching experience
I have contributed to several modules of the department of Geology of AUTh from 1998 while the period from 2003 to 2010 I was an Assoc. Professor in contract at the Technological Institute of Kozani, Greece.
