Pre-doctoral Researcher
Researcher in corrosion and failure modes of steels used in Thermal Storage Systems
Holding a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering and a Master’s degree in the same field, my professional journey has centered on the exploration of structural design, composite materials, and failure modes in materials.
My research trajectory delves deeply into the intricacies of structural design principles and the analysis of composite materials, contributing valuable insights to these fields. A distinguishing aspect of my work lies in the practical application, as evidenced by hands-on experience in the design and construction of prototypes, with a specialized focus on metal structures. In addition to my core areas of specialization, I possess comprehensive knowledge in the Finite Element Method (FEM). Proficiency in FEM enhances the precision and depth of my research endeavors, allowing for a nuanced understanding of structural behavior and material interactions. A defining facet of my research journey is the ongoing exploration of failure modes and corrosion mechanisms in steels utilized in Thermal Storage Systems reservoirs. Currently, my work aims to address the durability and reliability challenges associated with these materials. This research represents a cutting-edge endeavor, with a specific emphasis on enhancing our understanding of corrosion and failure modes in steel alloys, ultimately paving the way for more resilient and efficient storage solutions
