Experience

Research

August 2020 - Present

University of Notre Dame

Graduate Research Assistant

Civil and Environmental Engineering and Earth Science

  • Suggested efficient frameworks for real-time probabilistic prediction of storm surge using adaptive importance sampling scheme and multi-fidelity Monte Carlo.
     

  • Validated benefits of metamodeling technique for regional storm surge hazard quantification. 
     

  • Proposed a computationally efficient global sensitivity analysis for problems involving computationally expensive numerical models and high-dimensional outputs, and applied the tool for exploring the sensitivity of probabilistic storm surge estimates to forecast errors of storm characteristics.

March 2018 - December 2019

Korea Bridge Design & Engineering Research Center

Researcher

  • Established a real-time bridge management system against hazardous situations such as strong wind and abnormal vibrations.
