MAAL has maintained professional relationships with technical experts in the industries we service.

Dr. Deborah
Villarroel-Lamb

Dr. Deborah Villarroel-Lamb specializes in the numerical modelling of coastal processes, including ocean hydrodynamics and coastal morphology. She has developed specialized numerical models to investigate the physical processes that occur along a coastline, such as wave transformation, wave breaking, undertow currents, energy dissipation and sediment transport. Dr. Villarroel-Lamb has also gained experience in the assessment and design of coastal structures. She is also adept at using commercially available numerical tools to support these types of analyses. Dr Villarroel-Lamb is a proud recipient of the prestigious Royal Society – Newton Fellowship award in its inaugural year (2009) and her fellowship was taken up at University College London (UCL) in the United Kingdom. She has gained a wealth of knowledge and experience throughout her career thus far, and continues to explore opportunities for advancement within her chosen field.
