Short Bio:

I am a PhD candidate at Trinity College Dublin, affiliated with DC6 and supervised by Dr. David Taylor and Dr. David Hoey. Possessing undergraduate and master’s degrees in Biomechanical Engineering, my study predominantly examines the mechanical properties of different anatomical structures, especially bone. This project intends to utilize mechanical damage principles to forecast the initiation and advancement of microcracks in trabecular bone, employ fracture mechanics to model crack propagation, and create computational models to simulate the non-linear behavior of bone. My work is motivated by a profound interest in finite element modeling (FEM) and fracture mechanics.

Expectations about GAP:

I expect the GAP MSCA project to provide valuable interdisciplinary insights and collaborative opportunities, enhancing my expertise in biomechanics and computational modeling.
