OverviewAI-generated summary
David Kennedy's research has focused on structural engineering, including the cyclic testing of steel plate shear walls and the flexural behavior of concrete-filled hollow structural sections. He has also investigated simplified models for steel plate shear walls and developed algorithms for analyzing non-stationary random vibrations in vehicle-bridge systems.
His work extends to medical research, specifically in predicting the difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy through the development and validation of a pre-operative risk score. Kennedy has also conducted population-based cohort studies on outcomes following cholecystectomy for benign gallbladder diseases.
With a career marked by extensive publication, Kennedy holds an h-index of 40 and has accumulated over 5,800 citations across more than 335 publications. His research interests span both engineering and clinical health outcomes.
