Mohammadali Geranmehr is a researcher in civil engineering, specializing in water engineering. He holds bachelor's, master's, and PhD degrees in civil engineering. In his academic journey, Mohammadali focused on numerical models during his master's degree. His doctoral dissertation also centered on the optimal design of water distribution networks (WDNs), considering uncertainties in demand and pipes' roughness.

Throughout his PhD, Mohammadali conducted extensive research, delving into various aspects of WDNs. His investigations encompassed uncertainty analysis, pressure-dependent analysis, sustainability analysis, performance assessment, reliability analysis, quality analysis and sensor placement. He also explored research on optimal design and sustainability assessment of sewer collection systems. In addition, using soft computing methods, including machine learning techniques, meta-heuristic algorithms, and fuzzy theory has always been noticeable in his research.

Complementing his academic pursuits, Mohammadali gained valuable teaching experience as a lecturer. Moreover, Mohammadali possesses practical experience as a civil engineer in consulting firms. He actively participated in significant projects, such as the rehabilitation of water distribution networks and sewer collection systems. He also participated in the implementation of a real-time optimisation model to dynamically manage pressure-reduced valves, ensuring sufficient water pressure.

Mohammadali joined the department in 2021 as a research associate for the project entitled “CBET-EPSRC: Efficient Surrogate Modelling for Sustainable Management of Complex Seawater Intrusion-Impacted Aquifers”, funded by UKRI and US NSF. He is now working as a research associate for the "Managing Background Leakage" project, funded by the UK Water Services Regulation Authority (Ofwat).
