I'm a Registered Professional Engineer and member of the National Academy of Forensic Engineers and the American Institute of Steel Construction. I specialize in mechanical engineering and structural engineering with an emphasis in
• Computational structural mechanics (Finite Element Analysis)
• Fluid power
• Hydraulics
• Gas compression
• Pressure equipment
• Mechanical vibrations
• Piping and pipeline stress analysis
• Fatigue and fracture
• Collapsed steel structure accidents
• Metallurgy and behavior of steel
• Machine design
• Mathematical and numerical modeling
A key aspect of my approach is integrating a deep technical understanding of the governing physics of mechanical and structural systems with rigorous and practical mathematical modeling.
Through precise analytical, approximation, computational, and physical testing methods, I provide deposition and case testimony that is both technically reliable and firmly anchored in universally accepted scientific and engineering principles.
My expertise is applicable to various industries including oil, gas, wind, solar, petrochemical, chemical, manufacturing, biotechnology, food and beverage, transportation, construction, automotive, medical, and energy and power generation.
