Research interests

My research interests span biomechanics, biomaterials, and computational mechanics, with a specific emphasis on developing innovative solutions for orthopedic and reconstructive applications. Below, you will find details on my current and previous projects: 
  • Biomechanics: Understanding the mechanical behavior of biological tissues and applying those principles to the design of implants.
  • Biomaterials: Developing and testing novel materials, such as porous titanium alloys, that enhance bone integration and long-term stability.
  • Computational Mechanics: Utilizing finite element analysis (FEA) to predict the behavior of 3D-printed constructs under real-world loading conditions, optimizing design efficiency and clinical outcomes.

Past Projects

Patient-Specific Orthopedic Applications

Developing custom 3D-printed titanium implants that mimic bone structure and strength, improving integration and surgical outcomes for patients needing bone reconstruction due to injury, illness, or congenital conditions.

Predictive computational modelling of lattice-structured LPBF-built constructs

Creating and validated computational models, utilizing FEA and CAD, to predict the mechanical behavior of lattice-structured 3D-printed constructs, built using powder bed fusion.

Effect of Creep Loading on the Nanostructure of Tendons

Explored tendon damage under prolonged mechanical loading using advanced testing rigs and nanostructural analysis. The findings challenge existing theories on tendon mechanics, providing valuable insights for sports medicine and tissue engineering.
