Angus Ramsay

Angus completed a traditional indentured engineering apprenticeship (ICI) before studying at Liverpool, Exeter and the Robinson FEM Institute with a brief intervening period in automotive research and development. He conducted research in computational structural mechanics at IST in Lisbon (equilibrium methods) and Nottingham (yield-line techniques) which was followed by ten years industrial consultancy in mechanical engineering (turbomachinery). He is a founding member of NAFEMS Professional Simulation Engineer scheme and regularly interviews candidates for their assessment. He has written two books for the organisation with two more currently in preparation.

Angus has a PhD from the University of Exeter in computational structural mechanics, is a chartered engineer and Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. He maintains an interest in research and development particularly in the field of equilibrium finite elements and has recently developed an equilibrium finite element for elastoplastic analysis and design of rotating discs.

Angus acts as a Technical Expert for HKA and is a qualified and experienced Expert Witness working both independently and for HKA.

Tymofiy Gerasimov

Tymofiy's expertise and research activity lie at the intersection of applied mathematics, solid mechanics, finite element analysis and scientific code development. He currently focuses on phase-field modeling of brittle, ductile, hydraulic, anisotropic fractures to describe, better understand and predict cracks initiation, propagation and interaction that can lead to structure degradation and failure. His most significant contribution consists of devising robust and efficient computational algorithms to obtain meaningful, interpretable, and accurate simulation results.

Rob Vernon

After graduating with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Salford, Rob spent 16 years working in the Automotive Sector (Land Rover and Jaguar Cars) as a Finite Element Analyst. In 2001 he moved to the Aerospace Sector as an Airframe Stress Engineer (BAE Systems, Bombardier/Learjet and Aircelle) combining both Finite Element Analysis and Hand Calculation Methods to determine structural integrity. Adding to his multi-industry experience Rob has more recently entered the Nuclear Sector (Amec) as a Structural Integrity Analyst

Justin Morris

Justin completed a traditional engineering apprenticeship before moving into higher education to study for a HND in Mechatronics. Justin then spent a period of 6 years at Swansea University, where he gained a Mechanical Engineering degree and was subsequently awarded an Engineering Doctorate based on the research of residual stress fields produced from high-speed processing of coiled products. He has dedicated the majority of his professional career to the Civil and Defence Nuclear industry and has experience covering a wide range of stress analysis and structural integrity including elastic Shakedown and Fatigue assessments of Class 1 Nuclear Pressure Vessels, Seismic, Shock, and Fracture and Fatigue Crack Growth.

Jeremy Theler

Jeremy is a Nuclear Engineer from Argentina. His main background is the development of calculation codes. Before working in the nuclear industry he had performed research in two-phase flow instabilities and control of chaotic thermalhydraulic systems. He worked in the completion of the Atucha II Nuclear Power Plant developing a coupled calculation suite that allowed, amongst other things, to design a better algorithm for controlling the core power distribution against xenon instabilities. He wrote a free and open source finite-element solver from scratch fino and a web-based interface to run FEM analysis directly on the cloud.

Łukasz Skotny

Łukasz finished civil engineering studies with honours. Just after this he co-founded his first company dealing with the design of structural steel and in parallel started a PhD research project in the field of shell stability. During his PhD he fell in love with FEA design. After his PhD he got a postdoc position in his University where he developed a passion for teaching others. After 8 years he left a company he had co-founded to start Enterfea, where he can focus fully on Finite Element Method calculations and teaching others with courses and his blog. Łukasz has designed structures that were successfully built in over 20 countries on 5 continents.

Kirstin Ahmed

Kirstin graduated with a Physiology degree 20 years ago and set up a personal training company which she still manages remotely. She developed a specialism in the rehabilitation of disabled clients and chose to pursue her career further in that direction, but from an engineering perspective. She completed a Masters in Biomedical engineering where her dissertation used FEA to look at femoral bone strain in amputees with percutaneous bone anchored implants. Following this she continued using FEA, again with amputees in her doctorate studies, but in dogs as well as humans to look at ways of improving the implant design.
