Rate My Professor Yaser Gamil

Dr. Gamil's academic interests lie in Construction Management and Informatics, with key research areas including Building Information Modelling (BIM), circular economy, modular construction, digitalization, smart buildings, smart maintenance, responsive infrastructure, automation in the built environment, digital transformation in construction, and automated progress monitoring. His PhD supervision topics cover BIM-socioeconomic challenges, construction waste detection, BIM for facility management, digital twins, and AI in construction. His research contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals such as SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG 13 (Climate Action). He is a Partner Investigator on the project "Leveraging Digital Twins for Community-Driven Sustainable WEFE Nexus Management" (14 March 2024 – 13 March 2025). Notable publications include: "A machine learning-based genetic programming approach for the sustainable production of plastic sand paver blocks" (Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023, 25 citations); "Experimental study on the eco-friendly plastic-sand paver blocks by utilising plastic waste and basalt fibers" (Heliyon, 2023, 39 citations); "A bibliometric analysis and review on the performance of polymer-modified bitumen" (Frontiers in Materials, 2023, 17 citations); "Application of metaheuristic optimization algorithms in predicting the compressive strength of 3D-printed fiber-reinforced concrete" (Developments in the Built Environment, 2024, 50 citations); and "An integrated framework for sustainable and efficient building maintenance operations aligning with climate change, SDGs, and emerging technology" (Results in Engineering, 2024).
