Dr Adam Crewe is based in the Department of Civil Engineering where he examines the likely earthquake impacts that lead to the damage of buildings, bridges, dams, power stations and other built environments, using Bristol's innovative 鈥渟haking table鈥 simulation. Dr Crewe's projects include an analysis of ageing nuclear reactors to assess their ability to survive earthquakes and modelling the impact of earthquakes on Masonry walls that do not contain cement mix in the bonding mortar. Dr Crewe has been part of earthquake investigations in Japan and in Chile as a member of the formal Earthquake Engineering Field Investigation Team that reviews earthquakes globally. He is a member of the Society of Earthquake and Civil Engineering Dynamics (SECED), and Technical Advisor to an education outreach project called IDEERS (Introducing and Demonstrating Earthquake Engineering Research in Schools). Education 1987 - B.Eng Civil Engineering, University of Bristol, 1998 - PhD Civil Engineering, University of Bristol
Professor at the School of Earth and Space Exploration
Arizona State University (ASU)earthquake engineering, Geology, Planetary Geoscience, Topography
Ramon Arrowsmith studies the geomorphology of fault zones and records the history of activity. His work explores the history of earthquakes, their patterns, and impacts. Professor Arrowsmith developed the largest online portal for free, high-resolution topography data. His research is developed from active faulting, earthquake geology, and tectonic geomorphology. He is a professor for the School of Earth and Space Exploration. He is co-founder and co-PI of the OpenTopography effort, and a fellow in the Geological Society of America. Arrowsmith has been published in Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America multiple times.
