STAFF PROFILE

Charles Gbenga Williams obtained his first degree in Civil Engineering and Master’s degree in Geotechnical Engineering from the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA), Nigeria.

He has experience in quality control of Civil Engineering materials and construction processes. He worked directly with the Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental section of the Civil Engineering Department, FUTA as a teaching and research assistant from January, 2018 until November, 2021. He engaged with the team members in sub-surface soil investigations for foundation designs. He is presently an academic staff of the Elizade University, Ilara-Mokin.

His research interest covers sustainable infrastructure provisions; the application of computational intelligence in predicting soil hydraulic conductivity and environmental protection (with emphasis on waste containment barrier evaluation and the protection of groundwater resources from contaminations arising from improper waste disposal). One of his papers titled, “Predictive modelling of soils' hydraulic conductivity using artificial neural network and multiple linear regression” published in SN APPLIED SCIENCES is profoundly impressive. This paper has availed him the opportunity of being invited as one of the speakers in many international conferences relating to Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analysis and Data Mining. Furthermore, this journal was indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection. He is currently working on geoenvironmental-related research with wonderful ability to collaborate in multidisciplinary research.
