Profile

Professor Ghadbeigi obtained his BSc in Manufacturing Engineering and MSc in Mechanical Engineering in Iran, Sharif University of Tech, before joining ��«Ӱҵ in 2006 where he obtained his PhD in Mechanical Engineering and then became a member of academic staff in 2013.

While working on his PhD project, he was also a member of IMMPETUS as Research Assistant (2006-2010) and was involved in projects on modelling and characterisation of material deformation during thermo-mechanical processing.

Prof Ghadbeigi's research interest covers experimental investigation of materials deformation and failure mechanisms during thermo-mechanical loads and manufacturing processes, using experimental methods such as full field deformation characterisation and bespoke experimental design, as well as developing predictive analytical and numerical tools to simulate functional performance of materials and components.

His main research interest covers the effect of manufacturing processes on structural integrity and functional performance of components. His research was supported by collaboratives across the automotive, aerospace and energy sectors as well as cutting tool manufacturers, leading to two awarded patents.

Research interests:

Mechanics of material deformation in manufacturing processes
Materials deformation and failure analysis, using full field methods
Manufacturing processes induced structural integrity in metals and composites
Development of predictive tools, numerical, analytical and data driven, for prediction of materials performance during processing and service life
Machining and shear cutting systems' performance assessment, including forming and cutting tools

Research interests

Dr Ghadbeigi’s research interests cover a wide range of multidisciplinary topics on mechanics of materials deformation and damage in manufacturing processes such as machining and forming as well as manufacturing induced effects on the structural integrity and functional performance of produced parts.

Mechanics of machining and structural integrity are of his main research themes where Dr Ghadbeigi and his team develop experimental methods and numerical and analytical tools to predict chip formation in engineering materials and associated surface integrity based on the physics of deformation and failure.

Hassan has pioneered application of a range of experimental techniques, such as Digital Image correlation and microgrid techniques, to characterise local deformation and failure mechanisms in materials.

He has been involved in several project linked to manufacturing and machining science in collaboration Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre at the University of ��«Ӱҵ.

The developed methodologies are already implemented for production of aerospace and automotive components and materials; however, these could be applicable wherein materials experience any mode of deformation as part of their processing history.

Current research activities

Damage and fracture of spot welds in automotive steels
Local damage and deformation analysis of multiphase high strength automotive steels (Dual phase, TRIP and Complex phase)
Modelling of blanking induced defects on magnetic performance of electrical steels

Teaching interests

Dr Ghadbeigi has taught second year (MEC 202, GEE 207) and fourth year (MEC 455) modules for Mechanical Engineering and General Engineering students.

The second-year courses, Mechanics of Deformable solids and Mechanics of Structure, are about analysis of elastic deformation and interaction of solid elements and structures using analytical methods.

The fourth-year course is a specialized course on Advanced conventional manufacturing technologies, including Machining and Forming, where mechanics of deformation and manufacturing induced defects are studied.
