Research and Industrial Experience
-
Graduate Research Assistant
May 2021 - Present
Porous Media and Multiphase Flow (PMMF) Laboratory, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, USA.
​
Lab Head: Dr. Hooman Tafreshi Lab Website: PMMF
​​
-
Working on electrospinning of polymer nanofibers, developing models to simulate the spinning process, and generating the electrospun fiber mats.
-
Working on developing physics-based data-driven models (deep neural network models) for electrospinning.
-
Performed experiments on generating Polyurethane and Polystyrene nanofibers through the Fluidnatek LE-50 electrospinning unit. Characterized the experimental results using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-speed camera, and analyzed the polymer properties using the MCR 302 Rheometer.
-
Mentored high school students with disabilities for Catalyst Summer Internship 2022 and 2023 to provide hands-on lab and research experience in STEM.
-
Presented our research in the semi-annual Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) meeting of the Nonwovens Insitute at NCSU in Fall 2021, Spring 2022, Fall 2022, Spring 2023, Fall 2023.
-
Presented poster on my project in Research, Innovation & Science For Engineered (RISE) Fabrics Conference by INDA in 2022 and 2023.

Graduate Research Assistant
January 2021 - May 2021
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, USA.
-
Graduate Research Assistant
Aug 2017 - Aug 2019
CFDlab, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK, USA.
Lab Head: Dr. Omer San Lab Website: CFDlab
​
-
Developed 2D and 3D Navier-Stokes and Euler solvers for direct numerical simulation (DNS) and large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent flow problems using FORTRAN and Python programming languages.
-
Performed research on different LES approaches, and developed novel optimized filtering kernel for LES to provide a better estimation of the inertial range turbulence dynamics than other standard turbulence models.
-
Developed novel and improved proper orthogonal decomposition (POD)-Galerkin projection-based reduced-order models (ROMs) of geophysical flows using physics-based modeling techniques and data-driven (machine learning) tools.
-
Performed parallelization of DNS/LES simulation codes using OpenMPI standard library and ran the simulations on high-performance computing cluster, visualized the results using various post-processing software, published our findings in renowned peer-reviewed journals and presented our research in international conferences and regional symposiums.
