OverviewAI-generated summary
Hanan Mahdi's research focuses on understanding Earth's crustal structure and seismic activity, particularly in regions of tectonic collision and seismic zones. Mahdi has investigated the crustal structure of Iraq, including the Mesopotamian Plain, using receiver functions and surface wave dispersion to interpret deformation history. Additional work has examined seismotectonics and stress patterns in Northern Iraq and surrounding areas through moment tensor analysis and focal mechanism solutions. Mahdi's research also extends to the application of geophysical techniques for subsurface characterization, including the use of ground penetrating radar (GPR) for detecting animal burrows in levees and imaging liquefaction features near Marianna, Arkansas. More recently, Mahdi has applied GPR to assess cracks and voids in concrete structures. Mahdi has published 41 papers, with an h-index of 15 and 527 citations, and collaborates with researchers primarily from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
