Project’s Holder
Retired Scientific Director of ESI Group, 40 years industrial experience in Numerical Analysis and Simulation in Aerospace, out of which 36 years in industrial project driven innovation (conception, R&D contribution and management).
Associated codes in my career (from latest to oldest) were: PAMCRASH (PAMSHOCK), SAMCEF (SADYNEL), VECDYNA3D, DYNA2D, MARC, FINEL, ADINA.
I also created many codes in my career in aerospace/defence, in particular FEAST (Finite Element Analysis of STructures). However, I did not deposit this code as trademark in 1989 when I founded FEAST Engineering in the UK. It constitutes the basis of STRATOFEM™.
Other codes were related to the aeroelastic instabilities (flutter) of large experimental wind turbines (100m diameter in 1980). I conceived them during my MS studies at MIT Aero-Astro department, under a NASA-DOE Research Assistant contract. Eventually, I might make them available in this website.
My PhD studies were at Imperial College Aeronautics Department. I was the first Research Assistant for NAFEMS between 1984 and 1987, after the NAFEMS creation end of 1983. I designed all the Static Assemblies Benchmarks of NAFEMS, with the guidance of Prof Glyn Davies and Mr Denis Hitchings. Some of these benchmarks formed my PhD. I am using these Benchmarks to validate STRATOFEM.
In my carrier at ESI Group, I have developed the EWK (ESI-Wilkins-Kamoulakos) fracture model.
Die-hard Aeronautical Engineer with great experience in high velocity impact dynamics simulations. I have worked in the domains of: defense, space debris impact, birdstrike and ditching. I became involved in some widely known investigations like the American Aircraft Hardening Project (after the Lockerbie terrorist attack) and the beginning of the Concorde Gonesse accident investigation.
On a personal note, I became part of the CAPTIO (then CAPTION) team regarding the disappearance of the Malaysian Airlines flight MH370.
You can find all my publications, including those related in the paragraphs above, in Research Gate and ORCID. Similarly you can find more information on my career in my LinkedIn profile.
