Title:听Professor, Post-Retirement
Academic titles:听Eng, Ph.D.
Research area:听Structural Engineering

Biography:听听Professor McClure joined 麻豆AV in 1991 after five years of professional practice in transmission line engineering. She has more than 30 years of experience in structural dynamics and advanced computational solid mechanics research. She studies dynamic problems related to overhead transmission line structures, combining computational modeling and field tests. Another main research axis relates to realistic assessment and improvement of post-earthquake functionality of buildings. Her research is focused on developing seismic functionality assessment methods adapted to existing post-critical buildings (schools, hospitals and community centres designated as emergency shelters) and making use of ambient vibration measurements to extract the dynamic characteristics of structures. Finally, another of her current research topic relates to the computational investigation of wind-structure interaction problems in exposed flexible structures. Professor McClure retired from active academic duties in the Department in August 2021 and she no longer recruits research trainees.
