About

I am an R&D Chief Engineer in Product Design, Simulation, and Materials, with strong industrial experience in the development of home appliance products, mechanical components, and engineering-driven product solutions.

My expertise combines product conception, engineering simulation, materials engineering, and design optimization, allowing me to support projects from initial concept to technical validation.

I specialize in:

Structural and mechanical simulation (FEM)
CFD and thermal analysis
Materials engineering (metals & polymers)
Design validation and optimization
Failure analysis and durability assessment
Engineering modeling and technical problem solving

I have extensive experience working with both metallic and plastic components, including their:

mechanical behavior
manufacturing constraints
durability performance
structural limitations
material selection criteria

I am proficient in a wide range of advanced engineering tools, including:

Altair HyperMesh
AcuSolve
OptiStruct
Abaqus
SimLab
HyperForm
SolidWorks

I also have strong programming skills in:

MATLAB
Python
Fortran

These skills allow me to build custom scripts, automate repetitive engineering tasks, optimize workflows, and perform advanced data analysis for simulation and product development projects.

Services I can provide:
CAD modeling and design support
Finite Element Analysis (FEA / FEM)
CFD and thermal simulations
Engineering calculations
Materials selection and analysis
Product design improvement and optimization
Simulation automation and scripting
Technical support for R&D and industrial development

I focus on delivering reliable, technically sound, and practical engineering solutions that help clients reduce risk, improve product performance, and accelerate development.
