Research Fellow
Arezoo Rahimi joined as Research Associate in the School of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Her research is focused on numerical modelling of effects of climate (rainfall, wind and water table) on stability of trees in Singapore. The research is intended to minimize the occurrences of tree failures in Singapore during storms and high wind conditions.

Research Assistant
Arezoo Rahimi joined as a PhD candidate (Under A*-Star SINGA Scholarship) in School of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. She finished her course work with GPA 4.83 out of 5. Her research is focused on unsaturated permeability of soils. Theoretical development and laboratory measurements were the main parts of her PhD studies. The design of many geotechnical structures requires a good understanding of the flow of water in the soils. Therefore, the PhD subject is very relevant to the industry and the method developed in the thesis is very promising approach for practical purposes.

Project Officer
Arezoo Rahimi served as a Project Officer in the School of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. Her research was focused on numerical analyses of rainfall-induced slope failure and developing green technology for slope protection. Her research outcome is very useful to be used as a guideline for practicing engineer in designing slopes in Singapore and her results has been published as part of geotechnical engineering monograph titled as: \Rainfall-induced slope failures and preventive measures in Singapore\.
