Bryant Consultants Expands Team With Two New PhD’d Civil Engineers to Address Demand

As part of our constant pursuit of geotechnical engineering excellence, we have expanded our team to include two new members, Dr. M. Kabir Hossain and Dr. Jeong Yeon Cheon.

Watch the video introducing Dr. Hossain and Dr. Cheon and their role in leading Bryant Consultant’s sub-sea and coastal geotechnical services.

Dr. Hossain

Dr. M. Kabir Hossain earned his PhD in Civil Engineering from Texas A & M and brings over two decades of numerical modeling expertise to Bryant Consultants. Additionally, he combines his research methods with his past project experiences including:

• Consulting in the offshore oil and gas industry for nearly 20 years, and
• Supervising and conducting geotechnical forensic engineering modeling and analysis.

In addition, he is responsible at Bryant for overseeing the Subsea Geotechnics Division. His team is responsible for providing geotechnical engineering and consulting services to offshore oil and gas operations. He is also a registered and licensed as a Professional Engineer (PE) in the state of Texas and is a Chartered Engineer by the Engineering Council in the United Kingdom.

Dr. Cheon

Dr. Jeong Yeon Cheon received her PhD in Civil Engineering from the University of Texas and provides forensic engineering expertise in complex soil structure interaction investigations.  Her research expertise is applied in many ways to serve Bryant Consultants’ clients.  For example, she is directly involved in all phases of offshore deep water geotechnical investigations, from survey planning and field operations to office engineering and reporting.  Also, she has extensive experience in the analysis of pipe soil interaction, shallow and deep foundations, integrated study, slope stability, offshore field QA/QC, core logging (gINT), and cone penetration test data.  In addition, Dr. Cheon is a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) in the state of Texas.
