Ph.D. Candidate in Bioengineering
August 2023
Numerical modeling of the cardiovascular system to develop novel diagnostic methods for cardiovascular diseases
Mohammadali Monfared is a Ph.D. student in the Taebi Lab with an extensive background in fluid mechanics and biomechanics. He earned his Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (Energy Conversion and Fluid Mechanics) from Shiraz University, where his thesis focused on fluid-structure interaction simulations of the aortic valve and left ventricle to study Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM)—research subsequently published in WSEAS Transactions on Fluid Mechanics. Prior to his doctoral studies, he served as a research assistant developing patient-specific respiratory models for targeted drug delivery. He brings deep technical expertise in bio-fluid dynamics, patient-specific modeling (Mimics, Preludium), and computational mechanics (ANSYS Workbench, ICEM CFD, SOLIDWORKS).
