About
I received my BSc. and MSc. degrees in Civil and Geotechnical Engineering from Sharif University of Technology (SUT) in Iran. I have over three years of experience as a teaching assistant in several courses such as Foundation Engineering, Soil Mechanics, Concrete Technology and Lab, and Statics. I am experienced in Geotechnical Engineering computer software, including Plaxis, GeoStudio, Comsol Multiphysics, and Geotechnical earthquake engineering software OpenSees. I became an Iranian Professional Engineer (PE) in June 2020. I joined NTNU as a Ph.D. candidate in Geotechnical Engineering in August 2020, and I am currently doing research on Geothermal Energy Driven Concrete Piles under the supervision of Professor Rao Martand Singh.

Denne byggeløsningen henter varme rett fra jorda
Med en helt ny type pæleskjøt kan jordvarme hentes direkte via pælene som forankrer bygg i bakken. Oppfinnelsen gjør det enklere, raskere, billigere og tryggere å utnytte miljøvennlig energi.
Jordvarme via Betong Pæler
Løsningen er et av prosjektene ved NTNU Technology Transfer (TTO) som er kommet langt i utviklingen mot å bli et produkt tilgjengelig i markedet. Doktorgradsstipendiat Habibollah Sadeghi utvikler ideen.
Construction solution extracts heat directly from the earth
Using a completely new piling joint, geothermal heat can be extracted directly via the piles used to anchor buildings in the ground. The invention makes it easier, quicker, cheaper and safer to use environmentally friendly energy.
Steel joint facilitates extraction of geothermal heat
A steel piling joint for concrete pile foundations under buildings, which also extracts geothermal energy, is reportedly quicker, cheaper and safer to use than boring separate wells.
Varme fra bakken uten å bore
TRONDHEIM: De fundamenterer bygget og får energi på kjøpet. NTNU-forsker Habibollah Sadeghi har laget nye pæler som overtar jobben til dyre energibrønner.
First pre-cast driven energy piles installed in Norway
Engineers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) have successfully installed Norway’s first pre-cast concrete driven energy piles.
Ny NTNU-oppfinnelse kan gjøre veien til oppvarming via jordvarme kortere og enklere
Ferdigstøpte, geotermiske betongpæler kan bli standard i fremtidens nybygg, og bidra til å dekke 60-70 prosent av byggets behov for oppvarming og nedkjøling, ifølge NTNU Technology Transfer.
