About

Roya Nasimi is an emerging researcher specializing in structural health monitoring, non-destructive testing, and infrastructure preservation. Her work sits at the intersection of civil engineering and intelligent sensing technologies, with a particular focus on developing innovative inspection methods for aging transportation infrastructure. Nasimi's most notable contributions center on tap-testing methodologies enhanced by machine learning techniques. Her 2022 study on remote structural tap testing devices deployed via ground vehicles represents a significant advancement in automating the health monitoring of transportation infrastructure, addressing the urgent need to assess and preserve aging civil systems — a paper that has already garnered 8 citations since publication. Complementing this work, her 2021 research demonstrated how tap-testing combined with machine learning algorithms can detect cracks in rock slopes adjacent to roadways, offering a proactive approach to preventing dangerous rockfall incidents. What distinguishes Nasimi's research is its practical, safety-driven focus — translating sophisticated sensing and data analysis tools into real-world solutions that protect both infrastructure and human lives. Her interdisciplinary approach, bridging structural engineering, robotics, and artificial intelligence, positions her as a promising voice in the next generation of smart infrastructure monitoring research.
