About the speaker:Dr. Todorovska is a Research Professor of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department of the University of Southern California (USC).She received interdisciplinary education in the sciences, engineering and applied mathematics, with Ph.D. degree in Civil Engineering, M.S. degrees in Applied Mathematics and Electrical Engineering, all from University of Southern California (USC), and B.S. degree in Physics from University of Skopje, Macedonia. Her research is based in earthquake engineering, engineering seismology and mechanics. She has published on a variety of topics in these fields, such as full-scale testing of structures and structural health monitoring; seismic wave propagation and soil-structure interaction; strong ground motion and probabilistic seismic hazard analysis; wavelet methods; seismic monitoring, instrumentation and data processing; and near-source tsunami modeling.She is an author or co-author of more than 200 technical publications, 110 of which are journal papers.She has also served as a consultant to government agencies and industry on strong ground motion, seismic hazard assessment, and strong motion data processing.Dr. Todorovska is a member of SSA, ASCE, AGU and EERI, and Editorial Board member ofSoil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering(2001-present),Earthquake Spectra(2008-2014), andGeofizika(2016-present).She has h-index 26 in the Web of Science citation database, and has been named amongTop 20 Authors on the Special Topic – Earthquakesworldwide for the period 1993-2003 (one of only two earthquake engineers on this lists), and amongTop 1% Authors in Engineeringworldwide for the period 1995-2005 by the Institute of Scientific Information (Thompson ISI), which is the publisher of the Web of Science.

Abstract:Wave imaging has been used successfully in many diverse applications with different scales, e.g. for imagingtissues, structures, the earth crust, fault zones, the ocean, the atmosphere… to characterize materials and structures. The speaker will review the state of the art of wave imaging of building structures for structural health monitoring, and challenges involved, with emphasis on extension of seismic interferometry to dispersive wave propagation.The method will be illustrated by applications to full-scale structures, such as modern high-rise buildings and cultural heritage structures.
