Jorge finished his MSc at PUC in 2015 and since then he is been working as a full-time researcher at CIGIDEN. His thesis titled “Nonlinear modeling of reinforced concrete shear walls using an improved fiber element” was also turned into an ISI publication submitted for publication during 2015. He is currently working on the characterization of the vulnerability of reinforced concrete buildings, and on the implementation of the HAZUS platform in CIGIDEN along with Dr. Paula Aguirre.
