He has published so far more than 59 research articles [http://www.nits.ac.in/departments/civil/civil.php] in highly reputed international journals (SCI, Scopus), 12 papers in conferences and one granted patent. He has so far guided 34 M.Tech. scholars, Ph.D. scholars (03 defended, 03 submitted). Currently several Ph.D. and M.Tech. scholars are working under him in various domains. He is a reviewer of various prestigious journals such as Natural Hazards Review (ASCE), Journal of Geomatics, Natural hazards and Risk (Taylor & Francis), Journal of Earthquake Engineering (Taylor & Francis), and Corrosion Engineering Science and Technology (Taylor and Francies). He has received several prestigious awards such as Outstanding Structural Engineer of the Year Award-2020, Conferred by the Governing Council of "Indian Association of Structural Engineers (IAStructE)", New Delhi, India, for the overall contribution of Civil Engineering. He is acting as "Research Advisor" of Nanyang Academy of Sciences (Singapore), received IGS-Sardar Resham Singh Memorial Award-2015, conferred by Indian Geotechnical Society (IGS), New Delhi. His Ph.D. thesis was nominated as one of the best thesis for "institute MEDAL" in IISc, Bangalore from Civil Engineering Department during 2014-2015. Dr. DenisePenelope 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), soilstructure interaction, vibration control, computeraided 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. He obtained his Ph.D. from the NIT Warangal and Doctor of Engineering and postdoctoral research from Japan. His
