I model wear and frictional contacts through computational mechanics and experiments.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I've developed computational frameworks for wear simulation in frictional contacts through my Ph.D. research at IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca, combining numerical simulation with experimental validation.
I've worked in R&D at Hilti on tribological testing and finite-element wear modelling, taught Mechanical Engineering at Sharda University, and now support engineering and manufacturing products through technical marketing and business development at Adonis Avero.
