Currently an undergraduate Mechanical Engineering senior at Texas A&M. I am working on using a continuous constraint satisfaction algorithm (provided by Dr. Richard Malak’s group) to search high-entropy alloy space and feasible liquid metal dealloying systems. Previously, I collected data points of different austenitic steel compositions and their stacking fault energy (SFE) as well as collecting data points for the SFE of magnesium alloys.
ANAS graduated and started his graduate studies @ Berkeley. Congratulation Anas… [Summer 2017]

I started as a Ph.D. Student with Dr. Arroyave’s Group in Fall 2017, and have been working on the computational design of steel materials using thermodynamics and information-fusion techniques. Side projects have extended into the use of machine learning techniques for quantification of microstructures.
Before Starting my Ph.D. I worked in materials research and development at Mintek in South Africa. Some of my focus areas while working there was the development of more corrosion and oxidation resistant FeAl alloys, colored gold and platinum jewelry alloys and metal spray forming.

About me:
I’m currently a PhD candidate in Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University. I acquired my BS degree in Mechatronics at the University of Technology – Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in 2007. Later, I was pursuing M.S. in Control and System at Texas A&M University, a university of traditions and honors to me, starting in Fall 2008. During my MS career, I realized my passion for Materials Science, particularly Computational Materials Science and Engineering; I decided to change my major for PhD career at the same beloved school in Spring 2011. I find that this decision is a great turn in my life, in which I’m passionately enjoying my work, researches, studies and above all my life as a materials scientist.

Interests: The application of computational methods to evaluate complex data sets for simulation initialization and to develop holistic materials science and engineering focused models; use atomistic scale information to tailor continuum level phase-field-models to timely and accurately simulate microstructural evolution for a given system, that can in-turn be used to drive experimental research and process and design cycles.
