Pijush Samui
Pijush Samui is working as an associate professor in civil engineering department at NIT Patna,
India. He graduated in 2000, with a B.Tech. in Civil Engineering from Indian Institute of Engineering
Science and Technology, Shibpur, India. He received his M.Sc. in Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering
from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India (2004). He holds a Ph.D. in Geotechnical Earthquake
Engineering (2008) from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India. He was a postdoctoral fellow at
University of Pittsburgh (USA) (2008-2009) and Tampere University of Technology (Finland) (2009-
2010). At University of Pittsburgh, he worked on design of efficient tool for rock cutting and application
of Support Vector Machine (SVM) in designing of geostructure. At Tampere University of Technology,
he worked on design of railway embankment, slope reliability and site characterization. In 2010, Dr.
Pijush joined in the Center for Disaster Mitigation and Management at VIT University as an Associate
Professor. He was promoted to a Professor in 2012. Dr. Pijush’s research focuses on the application of
Artificial Intelligence for designing civil engineering structure, design of foundation, stability of railway
embankment, reliability analysis, site characterization, and earthquake engineering. Dr. Pijush is
the recipient of the prestigious CIMO fellowship (2009) from Finland, for his integrated research on
the design of railway embankment. He was awarded Shamsher Prakash Research Award (2011) by IIT
Roorkee for his innovative research on the application of Artificial Intelligence in designing civil engineering structure. He wasselected asthe recipient of IGS Sardar Resham Singh Memorial Award – 2013 for his innovative research on infrastructure project. He was elected Fellow of International Congress of Disaster Management in 2010. He served as a guest in disaster advance journal. He also serves as an editorial board member in several international journals. Dr. Pijush is active in a variety of professional organizations including the Indian Geotechnical Society, Indian Science Congress, Institution of Engineers, World federation of Soft Computing, and Geotechnical Engineering for Disaster Mitigation and Rehabilitation. He has organized numerous workshops and conferences on the applications of artificial intelligence in civil engineering design.
