Dr. Cruz Noguez is interested in the analysis, design, and performance of reinforced masonry and concrete structures, modelling of their nonlinear structural behaviour, and repair/retrofit/rehabilitation strategies. His current lines of research include: nonlinear analysis, design, and behaviour of masonry and reinforced concrete structures; large-scale system and component testing (seismic and non-seismic); Structural simulation (finite-element analysis, strut-and-tie models); Use of innovative materials and details.
