Short bio
My research involves designing, manufacturing, and processing advanced high-strength steels, emphasizing understanding the processing-microstructure-property relationship.
I received my DSc degree in Materials Engineering from the University of Oulu, Finland, in 2020. During my doctoral studies (2016-2020), I worked on the designing and development of low-alloyed ultrahigh-strength steels from steel scrap using induction melting, electroslag remelting, and thermomechanical controlled processing. Moreover, studying the effect of the manufacturing and processing on the final microstructure, i.e., phase fraction, precipitate characteristics, and non-metallic inclusion characteristics. In addition, the evaluation of their effect on the final mechanical properties.
Currently, my research focuses on designing novel alloys with high potential use in hydrogen applications via high throughput techniques and the effect of novel heat treatment on their microstructure, mechanical properties, and hydrogen embrittlement resistance.
