Dr. Enea Mustafaraj is an Associate Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering, American University of the Middle East, Kuwait. He completed his PhD in Civil Engineering at EPOKA University, Albania, in 2016 with high honors, with a thesis on the external shear strengthening of unreinforced masonry walls using various strengthening techniques. His doctoral work combined extensive experimental testing with finite element modeling, demonstrating ferrocement jacketing as an effective technique for improving shear strength and ductility of damaged masonry. Since 2012, he has been actively engaged in teaching civil engineering courses and supervising bachelor’s and master’s students. His research has expanded to sustainable cementitious composites, particularly fiber-reinforced mortars and recycled reinforcement materials, bridging experimental, microstructural, and numerical approaches. Dr. Mustafaraj has published more than 25 papers in peer-reviewed journals and serves as an Editor for the Journal of Building Pathology and Rehabilitation, as well as a reviewer for several international journals and research projects. His teaching disciplines include reinforced concrete design, structural engineering, and construction materials, while his research interests span sustainable reinforcement, masonry retrofitting, and resilient infrastructure systems.
