    Senior Mechanical Engineer

  • Education

    • University of Central Lancashire

      2023 - 2028
      Doctor of Philosophy - PhD ENGINEERING
    • University of Central Lancashire

      2012 - 2015
      Computer Aided Engineering (Hons) Project / Engineering Dissertation First

      Activities and Societies: Experimentation, Chemical Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Tests, Project Management, Cost Management, Optioneering of Products, Develop Solutions, COSHH, legal requirements, Trial and Error, Research and Development. My Dissertation is based on 'Functional Coatings for 3D printed Parts'​. This consisted of developing coatings for applicable 3D printed polymers that created an improvement in the Material Properties.During the Project, I developed an understanding on creating a balance between research and 'Getting Stuff Done'​ to which practicality is equally as important as mentality.Attached is my Dissertation for any of you 'Keen' to know people.

      Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) Mechanical Engineering

      Being a Student at the University of Central Lancashire enabled me to open the door to engineering, learning the basic tools to create a foundation. It was only when I went through that door that I realised so much was untold / untaught. Therefore academia is great but can only go so far without industrial experience.

      Assistant Researcher

      Assisting a doctor of engineering in the development of functional coatings on 3d printed parts. Including the design of a unique and safe electroplating and graphite priming conductive solution. This is in turn resulted in a process of coating 3d printed parts in a nickel or copper coat which increased strength up to 40% and impact resistance by 70%.

      Provide mechanical design solutions to nuclear plant problems within a Nuclear material handling area using pre - defined plant handling methodology. Provide technical compliance to all standards, regulations and legislations integrated in the design. Bringing the plant design from scheme to active commisioning.This role engages myself into a range of detail design and build projects to fully decommission ones, increasing my scope of knowledge in the industry. This includes the application of incorporating control, safety systems and robotics.On the current decommissioning project I provided a full set of high level technical expertise for Installation & maintenance, process, decomissioning, operating, testing and CE Marking strategies which will compliment the project through the entire lifecycle and provide guidence to a wide-range of stakeholders. In addition to this role I provide radiological support for the engineering team.On this project the most significant aspects of my role involves Mechanical Design, Testing and Commissioning, Waste Management and engineering integration.Lead design engineer on two 10 tonne & two 60t radiological waste package transporters (10te & 60te Package Transfer Bogies) with a minimum operational lifetime of 30 years. (Multi-million pound project) Show less
