[2] Kodur's research has focused on the experimental behavior and analytical modeling of structural systems under extreme fire conditions, Constitutive modelling of material properties at elevated temperatures, Fire resistance design of structural systems, Application of AI/ML techniques, and Building collapse investigations.
His contributions to the field of structural fire safety and high performing construction materials are seminal and numerous, and his research accomplishments have had major impacts.
He has developed fundamental understanding on the behavior of materials and structural systems under extreme fire conditions.
The techniques and methodologies resulting from his research is instrumental for minimizing the destructive impact of fire in the built infrastructure, which continues to cause thousands of deaths and billions of dollars of damage each year in the US and around the world.
The most recent contribution from Kodur is a new text book on “Structural Fire Engineering” published by McGraw-Hill Education.
