(pre-graduate level, 2017-present), and "Control Process I" (post-graduate level, 2017-present).
● Organised seminar to provide awareness of process instrumentation technology and present appropriate troubleshooting to resolve critical issues in chemical engineering.
● Conducted research, attained positive results, and published articles on control systems performance comparison. Delivered lecture on control systems.
Simulation Engineer
CIMEC

2012-10 - 2016-08

Main analyst and simulation engineer for CANDU6 plant extension-of-life project.
● Formulated a thermal-hydraulic model from scratch for a nuclear power plant.
● Simulated worst-case scenarios to assess plant safety, such as loss of coolant accident. Evaluated the thermal hydraulic parameters such as minimum DNBR, fuel, clad, and coolant temperatures for CANDU6 reactor with RELAP5/SNAP. Based on this, report compliance of requirements or proposed plant modifications.
● Ensured analysis and reports requirements by collaborating with customers.
● Conducted engineering review meetings. Coordinate concurrent work.
● Simulated events using finite volume method. Utilised control systems simulation to perform earlyverification testing, combining the plant model and control system into one model, and simulating the closed-loop system behaviour.
● Involved simulation of new alloys for engine valves by analysing mechanical stresses and using the finite element software SAMCEF.
