Bio

Mo Gabr holds the position of Distinguished Professor at the Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at North Carolina State University. After obtaining his Ph.D. in 1987, he have worked in various sectors of industry and academia, including performing work related to offshore geotechnics and geoenvironmental engineering at two international institutions, international consulting firm, two universities, and as a Research Faculty at the Army Corps of Engineers Waterways Experiment Station in Vicksburg (now renamed as Engineer Research and Development Center.) Dr. Gabr served as the acting Director of the North Carolina Renewable Ocean Energy program for four years. He has held leadership positions chairing national technical committees at the Transportation Research Board of the National Research Council and at the Geo-Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers. He is elected Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers and was inducted as a Diplomate of the Geo-Institute Academy of Geotechnical Professionals. He is a registered professional engineer in five States, with actively practicing Engineering in the State of North Carolina.

SHORT DESCRIPTION OF INTERESTS:
Offshore foundation systems supporting renewable energy structures; Innovative soil improvement techniques including the use of geosynthetics with zero carbon balance; sustainability of hydro power and flood defense earth structures under extreme storms, embankment and pier scour assessment and mitigation measures.
