Who Am I?Currently: a PHD
candidate in Mech. Eng.
Dept., at the UW-Madison. My
area of interest is computational mechanics, more specifically FEA
and its application in design automation. Thin
structures (beams, plates, shells etc) are extensively used in current
designs. Unfortunately in these scenarios the classic FEA entails a special
treatment known as model reduction. In this process, the 3D CAD model
is first geometrically reduced to a so-called mid-surface, and then FEA is
performed on the mid-surface. Computing mid-surface and reducing
computational domain, however, is a procedure which needs excessive human
input, thereby breaking down design automation particularly in the context of
shape optimization. My goal is to develop a new reduction scheme which
is automatable within 3D CAD environment for linear and nonlinear problems. I
am doing research in Prof.
Suresh's group. Please
see my resume for more information. My Hobbies?Music: Music has always been my "number one" hobby,
specially Traditional Persian and Azerbayjani music. Please visit my hobbies page to listen to few songs by me. |
