Master's students Hussein Mohammed Shakir MNEDEH and Hussein Allawi Salloom AL-ATTABI, supervised by Assoc. Prof. Metin MEHMETOĞLU from the Civil Engineering Department, have successfully completed their thesis defenses and fulfilled the requirements for graduation.
Hussein Mohammed Shakir MNEDEH completed his thesis titled “Synergetic Assessment of Metakaolin and Fly Ash Based SIFCON Composites,” which investigated the combined effects of metakaolin and fly ash on the performance of Slurry Infiltrated Fiber Concrete (SIFCON) composites. The study evaluated the contribution of different mineral admixtures to the mechanical properties and durability of the material, providing valuable insights into sustainable and high-performance construction materials.
Hussein Allawi Salloom AL-ATTABI completed his thesis titled “Strength and Durability Properties of Steel and Glass Fibers Reinforced Mortars Containing Various Waste Materials.” His research examined the strength and durability performance of steel- and glass-fiber-reinforced mortars incorporating various waste materials, highlighting their potential contribution to sustainable and environmentally friendly construction materials.
Both theses make valuable contributions to the fields of sustainable construction materials, advanced concrete technologies, and environmentally responsible engineering applications.
The Civil Engineering Department congratulates Hussein Mohammed Shakir MNEDEH, Hussein Allawi Salloom AL-ATTABI, and their supervisor, Assoc. Prof. Metin MEHMETOĞLU, and wishes them continued success in their academic and professional careers.
