      2009 - 2013
      Bachelor of Science (BS) Mechanical Engineering 3.78/4.00

      Activities and Societies: -Participated in AIAA Design, Build and Fly competition in USA as Team Lead in 2012 and 2013. -Winner of National design, build and fly competition (DBFC) in electric category as Team Lead 2011. -6th rank in National Robo league (qualifier round for tech fest India 2012) as Team Lead 2011. -Participated in National Engineering Robotic Competition (NERC) 2011. My undergraduate studies in Mechanical Engineering at one of the most prestigious institutes of Pakistan, GIK Institute, have allowed me to develop a solid background in thermal sciences, fluid dynamics, and mathematics. In addition to my core areas of interest, fluid dynamics and propulsion, I also took courses on design, manufacturing, and materials, thus laying a sound foundation to pursue a research career in mechanical engineering.

      Carbon particulate (soot) formed as a result of combustion or pyrolysis is of great concern. Many practical combustion devices involve non-premixed sooty flames. Soot emissions from combustion devices that use coal, oil, or biomass, are a combustion inefficiency and a health hazard. Therefore, better understanding of soot formation in combustion processes is required. During my masters at Reactive Flow Modelling Laboratory at KAUST, my research is focused on numerical modeling of Soot… Show more Carbon particulate (soot) formed as a result of combustion or pyrolysis is of great concern. Many practical combustion devices involve non-premixed sooty flames. Soot emissions from combustion devices that use coal, oil, or biomass, are a combustion inefficiency and a health hazard. Therefore, better understanding of soot formation in combustion processes is required. During my masters at Reactive Flow Modelling Laboratory at KAUST, my research is focused on numerical modeling of Soot Formation. In the work, a set of coflow diffusion flames (e.g. flames in aircraft engine but laminar instead of turbulent) are simulated to study the formation, growth, and oxidation of soot in flames of diluted hydrocarbon fuels, with focus on the effects of pressure on soot yield.
