@paulkimutai
I model complex mechanical systems through computational research and scientific analysis.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I've conducted doctoral research at the University of Nairobi, using computational mechanics, thermodynamics, and material modeling to address complex engineering problems.
My work applies mathematical modeling and simulation tools, including MATLAB, ANSYS, and COMSOL. I've published peer-reviewed research and presented work on heat transfer in composite structures and finite element analysis in mechanical systems.
At Moi University, I taught undergraduate mathematics, physics, and engineering principles while supervising student projects and supporting curriculum development.
I'm skilled in scientific evaluation, technical writing, and identifying issues in the accuracy, validity, and reproducibility of research outputs. I work independently across engineering, physics, mathematics, and computational sciences.
