Ellie H. Fini is an Associate Professor at Arizona State University, a Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), an Invention Ambassador for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), a Fulbright Scholar at Aalborg University of Denmark, a Senior Sustainability Scientist at the Global Institute of Sustainability and Innovation, and the Director of the Innovation Network for Materials, Methods and Management. Her research focuses on the production, characterization, and atomistic modeling of sustainable, high-performance materials for construction and infrastructure applications. With more than 200 scholarly publications and numerous invited talks, her work has advanced the science and engineering of resilient infrastructure materials. Her research has also been featured by BBC Women in STEM, Science Nation, Wired Magazine, and CNBC. Pouria Hajikarimi is an Assistant Professor and Director of the Advanced Pavement Laboratory in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering of Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic). His main field of research interest is the experimental and numerical investigation of homogeneous and heterogeneous viscoelastic materials, and using bio-based and waste substances in different constructional materials like asphalt mixture, cementitious concrete, and geopolymer. Recently, he published his first book entitled Applications of Viscoelasticity: Bituminous Materials Characterization and Modeling with Elsevier. He has published more than 35 journal papers and several international conference papers in his field of expertise.
