She received a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, and a M.Sc. in Civil Engineering at Virginia Tech. She completed her undergraduate studies at Universidad Cat\u00f3lica Andr\u00e9s Bello (UCAB) in Caracas, Venezuela, where she also worked as a civil engineer for nearly two years at a geotechnical engineering consulting firm.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Cabas was also a visiting researcher at the Institut Fran\u00e7ais des Sciences et Technologies des Transports, de l\u2019Am\u00e9nagement et des R\u00e9seaux (IFSTTAR), in France, where she worked on the estimation of near-surface attenuation parameters at more than 600 recording stations from the large Kiban-Kyoshin (KiK-net) Japanese database.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Cabas&#8217; research interests include the assessment of seismic hazards, performance-based design in geotechnical engineering, the prediction of the response of soils and foundation systems to seismic loading and dynamic soil-foundation-structure interaction. More specifically, Dr. Cabas\u2019 research program focuses on site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, and the proper characterization of site effects and their influence on ground motion intensity measures.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Cabas\u2019s work on V<sub>s<\/sub>-\u03ba<sub>0<\/sub> adjustments to input motions was awarded the first place at the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) 2014 Graduate Student Paper Competition. She has also recently served as co-chair at a technical session on damping characterization at the 2017 Seismological Society of America Annual Meeting and at the seismic parameters track at the American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE) 2017 Geotechnical Frontiers Conference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ashly Cabas is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at North Carolina State University.
