CV
Bio:
I got my B.S in Mechanical Engineering from King Abdulaziz University (KAU), Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in 2001, I joined Saline Water Conversion Corporation in Jubail, Saudi Arabia, as a mechanical engineer. In 2003, I returned to Jeddah to work for Saudi Arabian Airlines as a material specialist. In 2007, I began working at King Saud University at Riyadh and received a scholarship to pursue a Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy. In 2008, I joined Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pa. In 2011, I received my M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics from Lehigh and my Ph.D in 2014 from the same university. My research interests are deformation processes of metal (Steel, Al, Mg ), FE numerical simulation, physical simulation, mechanical testing and microstructure characterization.
