Abstract
This profile summarizes Hamze Rouhi’s reported academic indicators and selected publications concerning the seismic response of reinforced-concrete frames fitted with steel plate shear walls. The supplied research addresses spectral correction factors, structural vulnerability, residual capacity and nonlinear response under real, artificial and sequential earthquake records. Incremental dynamic analysis is among the methods identified in the publication titles, reflecting an emphasis on examining structural performance across increasing levels of seismic demand. The profile outlines these research themes and their relevance to structural engineering without inferring results beyond the information available in the supplied publication records. [2]

Introduction
Earthquake engineering evaluates how structures respond to ground motion and how structural systems can be designed or assessed to reduce seismic risk. Reinforced-concrete frames are widely used in building construction, while steel plate shear walls can provide additional lateral resistance. Their performance depends on structural configuration, material properties, loading history and earthquake characteristics. Analytical methods help researchers compare structural responses and identify potential vulnerabilities. [3]
The supplied publications associated with Rouhi examine these questions through studies of steel plate shear wall systems, seismic sequences and structural response. Together, the titles establish a consistent focus on assessing the behaviour and capacity of reinforced-concrete frames under earthquake loading.
Research Profile
The supplied profile identifies Semnan University in Iran as Rouhi’s institutional affiliation and lists 14 documents, 24 citations and an h-index of 3. These indicators provide a quantitative snapshot of the reported scholarly record; they may change with database updates and depend on indexing coverage. Although the nominated subject area is Nanomaterials for Energy, the publication titles supplied here are primarily concerned with earthquake-resistant structures and seismic assessment. This distinction is important when describing the specific evidence available for the profile. [1]
Research Contributions
The supplied publications represent several connected themes in structural and earthquake engineering:
- Calculation of spectral correction factors for reinforced-concrete frames equipped with steel plate shear walls under near-field earthquakes. [2]
- Investigation of seismic vulnerability in reinforced-concrete frames incorporating steel plate shear walls. [3]
- Assessment of residual capacity under sequential earthquakes using incremental dynamic analysis. [4]
- Analysis of nonlinear structural behaviour under sequences of real and artificial earthquake records. [5]
These topics are relevant to understanding how lateral-force-resisting systems perform under complex seismic demands. The specific findings and quantitative conclusions of each study should be taken from the full publications rather than inferred from their titles alone.

Research Impact
The listed studies address practical questions in seismic assessment, including vulnerability, spectral response and residual structural capacity after earthquake sequences. Such research can inform analytical evaluation and comparison of structural systems, although its implications for design practice depend on the assumptions, models, validation methods and findings reported in each paper. The supplied bibliometric figures indicate a documented publication and citation record, but should be interpreted alongside full-text research quality, reproducibility and relevance to current engineering practice. [6]
Award Suitability
This Editorial Board Member profile for the Global Nano Awards presents Rouhi’s reported scholarly indicators and selected work in structural engineering. His listed publications provide a basis for discussing research activity in seismic vulnerability and reinforced-concrete frame performance. A formal assessment of editorial-board suitability would also require verified information about editorial appointments, peer-review experience, subject expertise and the organization’s selection criteria. The supplied information alone does not independently establish an appointment or confirm an award decision.
Conclusion
Hamze Rouhi’s supplied research record focuses on seismic evaluation of reinforced-concrete frames, particularly systems equipped with steel plate shear walls. The selected publications address spectral correction, vulnerability, nonlinear response and residual capacity under earthquake sequences. Together with the reported bibliometric indicators and Semnan University affiliation, these details form a concise academic recognition profile. Further assessment should rely on verified bibliographic records and the full text of the relevant studies.
