Passionately applying cutting edge computational modelling techniques to tangible outcomes for medical, sporting and health industries. Linking with the best physical experimentalists in a large range of fields to design useful experiments that create new insights into our health and serve as inputs or validation data for computational models.Experience: - 11+ years @ CSIRO leading computational modelling projects in sports biomechanics, health and the breakdown of food and flavour release in the mouth- 2.5 years industry (Analytical and FE based stress analysis of Pressure Vessels, Mining equipment and experimental stress analysis), - 5 years academic (Biomechanics) experience in numerical, analytical and experimental stress analysisSpecialties: - Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and solid mechanics using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics- Finite Element analysis (ABAQUS, ANSYS, FEPipe)- Granular flow analysis using Discrete Element method (DEM)- Dynamic analysis of structures and human/animal locomotion- Pressure vessel design, verification and integrity assessment- Numerical Optimisation (Matlab, SNOPT, FORTRAN)
