Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Eken is a scholar specializing in construction materials and sustainable building technologies. His research focuses on the use of alternative binders in concrete and mortar, the utilization of industrial and agricultural waste materials in the construction sector, aggregate characterization, and the behavior of concrete under high-temperature and environmental effects.

He conducts experimental studies aimed at improving material performance and developing environmentally friendly, durable, and cost-effective construction materials. Dr. Eken also contributes to the field of sustainable building design through his work on energy-efficient systems and net-zero energy building concepts.

Known for his interdisciplinary approach, Dr. Eken continues to engage in scientific publications, projects, and applied research, offering innovative solutions to contemporary challenges in construction engineering.

My research interests are in the area of modelling and analysis of Human-Machine Interfaces in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) with high-assurance needs, System Optimisation, System Modelling and Artificial Intelligence.
