Personal profile
Research Focus
My research interests are mostly focused on different aspects of fibre reinforced polymer composites, including design and manufacture, testing and characterization and finite element simulation. In particular, I am interested in nano-enhanced hierarchically structured advanced fibre reinforced composites, fracture behavior and toughness of polymer composites, and injection overmoulding of composite parts. I work closely with industry partners in aerospace sector including Bombardier, and Collins aerospace.
