Biography

Orhan Yapici
Assistant Professor in Structural Engineering, Heriot-Watt University

Orhan Yapici completed his undergraduate studies in Civil Engineering at the Istanbul Technical University, Istanbul, Turkey in 2013. After obtaining an MSc (with high honours) in Structural Engineering and Steel Design from Istanbul Technical University in 2016, he worked as a research and teaching associate in Istanbul. Subsequently, he commenced his doctoral studies on the ultimate response of stainless steel bolted connections at the University of Birmingham. Upon obtaining his PhD in 2021, he joined the School of Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society at Heriot-Watt University as an assistant professor in 2021.
