• Dynamic Analysis of Ship-Mounted Construction Cranes Subject to Random Seas, U.S. Navy.

Dr. Saul’s interests are in structural dynamics including wind and earthquake engineering, human loads, simulation, and computer methods. At present he is investigating the dynamic loads due to human actions and working to provide time-dependent models for individuals in crowd activities, such as at a stadium.
