ESR11 Development of methods for risk assessment of wind turbine support structures and bridges

It was a great experience for me to go for the 14th eawe (european academy of wind energy) Ph.D. seminar which was hosted by Vrije Universiteit Brussels.  I have presented an extended abstract as follow there: Title:  Bayesian Network Methods for Risk-Based Decision Making for Wind Turbines Authors: Sima Rastayesh, Jannie Sønderkær Nielsen, John Dalsgaard Sørensen In the first day, some workshops were organized by Ph.D. students who were at the end of their Ph.D. or they were graduated recently. I liked this opportunity which was given to those Ph.D. students. Hope I could also have this chance later. In this conference, four of ESRs had their presentation.  The dinner of this conference was very special, as we ate with dinosaurs 😜 Luckily they did not eat us 😂, It was the best memory I could have from a dinner by a conference, We were all feeling we are VIPs with those delicious food with different varieties.

This time, it was a bit different as it was the midterm review meeting as well as usual presentations.  All ESRs were supposed to give a presentation about their own Ph.D. and the reviewer from the Research Executive Agency gave us her comments.  Among all presentations, which each of them had their own value, a presentation by  Christian Clergue was so practical from my point of view, as we have learned how we should write a good CV, how we should manage an interview and many other skills to get a new job after Ph.D.  I hope in our last gathering in the last Implementation Day, we could again have the opportunity to know more tips to apply for a new job by a presentation as it will be near the end of Ph.D. of most of us and would be useful. Same as others, I also have presented my Ph.D. and my findings
