Senior Research Engineer, Optimization and Benchmarking

Benchmarking topology optimization solvers with simulation and physical test data

I treat every claimed improvement as a hypothesis that needs a benchmark, not a headline. My case studies compare solvers, mesh resolutions, objective formulations, and fabrication outcomes across controlled datasets and physical coupons. I focus on transparent metrics, failure cases, and repeatable scripts so optimization specialists can see which gains survive contact with noise, constraints, and real engineering tolerances.
