Have taught labs for Mechanical Engineering Course Manufacturing Processes encompassing different aspects of manufacturing like machining, casting, welding, plastic processing and sheet metal forming.
Acted as faculty member at NUST School of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering have performed a pivotal role in establishing educational/research labs at the school including state of art manufacturing technologies like CNCs, Rapid Prototyping and advanced CAD/CAM systems.
During my tenure I have taught undergraduate mechanical engineering subjects of 1. Engineering Drawing & Graphics, 2. Engineering Mechanics, 3. Workshop Technology and 4. Thermodynamics to faculties of Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Materials and Civil Engineering.
Besides performing duties such as Member Local Purchase Committee and Officer in charge (OIC) CAD/CAM Lab, also acting as the University’s Media Club Faculty Advisor.
Research and Development projects dealt with structural design using modern simulation and evaluation techniques
Investigation of Sensors Embedding in Materials & Study of their Placement in Smart Structures Investigation on methods to embed off the shelf miniature sensors (fiber optic-FBG) inside materials (metal/plastics) to make existing structures smart. Work included sensor characterization with respect to mechanical, thermal and hydrostatic strain using custom built test setups. Light transmission tests with embedded optical sensor in materials like Aluminum, ABS and PLA. Theoretical investigation for optimal sensor placement. Sensor calibration study accompanied by strain gages. Incorporation of 3D printing to embed sensors in complex shapes.
