	Dr. Kowalsky is an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at North Carolina State University. He arrived at NCSU after graduating from University of California, San Diego in 1997 with a PhD Degree in Structural Engineering. Dr. Kowalsky's major field of research is seismic analysis and design of structures, including but not limited to: Bridges, RC Moment Resisting Frame, and Masonry Structures. The most current research projects are:      - Impact of loading history on seismic performance of RC members.      - Seismic behavior of steel column to cap connections.      - Seismic behavior of spirally welded pipe piles.      - Seismic Performance of Shear Critical Lightweight Concrete Members.      - Polymer Fiber Optic Instrumentation for Large Strain Measurements.      - Displacement-Based Seismic Design of Bridge Structures      - Effects of low temperatures on ductility of Reinforced Concrete Members.
