Tiago Miguel Ferreira
Tiago Miguel Ferreira is an Assistant Professor in Civil Engineering at the School of Engineering of the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol), UK. Dr Ferreira’s research focuses on the structural vulnerability of historical buildings and urban areas to natural and anthropogenic hazards, specifically earthquakes, fires, floods, and landslides. More recently, he has expanded his focus to include the interaction between hazards and physical and social vulnerability in the context of single, compound, and cascading events. He edited several books on the topics of vulnerability and risk assessment and participated in many projects.
