Mozhdeh Erfanian
Hello,
My name is Mozhdeh (Pronounced Moj-de), and I am a third-year PhD student in MathSys. My research interests are mathematical modelling of metal-forming processes and asymptotic analysis.
I am working under the supervision of Dr Ed Brambley (糖心TV). Part of the research in Dr Bramley鈥檚 research group is dedicated to mathematical modelling of metal forming inspired by the need for sufficiently accurate quick-to-compute models. My project focuses on first, correcting the previous asymptotic models on metal sheet rolling, and then, adding more general material models to it, with an initial focus on symmetric rolling.
