Invited Speakers

Joaquim Comas
Joaquim Comas

Prof. Joaquim Comas is leading the Modelling and decision support system research line at the Evaluation and Technologies Area of ICRA. He is also Associate Professor of the Chemical Engineering Department of the University of Girona, where he is a member of the Laboratory of Chemical and Environmental Engineering research group (LEQUIA, lequia.udg.cat), which belongs to the Network of Innovation Support Centers of the Catalan Government (TECNIO ACC1Ó). He is lecturing at the Bsc’s in Chemistry, Environmental Sciences and Biotechnology and at the Msc in Water Science and Technology.

Nazli Aydin
Nazli Yonca Aydin

Dr. Nazli Yonca Aydin currently is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management, Systems Engineering section. Previously, she was a postdoctoral and senior researcher at the Future Resilient Systems, Singapore-ETH Centre. She holds a Ph.D. from the Civil Engineering Department, University of Kaiserslautern, Germany. During this time, she was a visiting researcher at Arizona State University investigating the sustainability of urban water distribution systems. She is also a member of the 4TU- DeSIRE program on Resilience Engineering, and her research focus is to understand and measure the unique characteristics of resilient cities and critical infrastructures. Currently, she is working on two domains (1) land use and transportation network interaction to improve community resilience and (2) measuring the operational and structural resilience of urban water supply systems, including developing effective strategies to recover from disruptions.
