Manas, Saif and John speak with Dr. Flavia De Luca, a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Civil Engineering at University of Bristol. Her expertise is within the field of structural and earthquake engineering, with a specific focus to Reinforced Concrete frame structures. She is part of the Earthquake and Geotechnical Engineering Research Group. In this episode, we focus on her experiences working in countries around the world and explore the impact of engineering research in developing countries. We also explore the details of how earthquake engineering is optimised to save as many lives as possible in disasters. This episode was recorded in February 2023. ---- Engenius is produced by a team of engineering students at the University of Bristol.
