Gihad Ibrahim

Educator/Teacher, Engineer, Entrepreneur, Industrialist, Marketer, Project manager, Scientist

Gihad Ibrahim received a first-class B.Eng. (Hons) degree in Mechatronics Engineering from the School of Engineering, University of Wolverhampton, UK in 2008 and a Ph.D. from the Department of Engineering, University of Leicester, UK in 2015. His research efforts aim towards the multiphysics modelling of complex biological systems. As part of his PhD, he developed an integrated computational framework for dynamic subject specific modelling of the pulmonary flow using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and low-resolution Computed Tomography (CT). The outcome of this computational framework is expected to move the CFD-based investigation of lung functions to the next stage. The teaching experience of Dr Ibrahim focuses on the design, the simulation, and the analysis of mechanical and mechatronic systems. He also teaches modules related to production processes, CAD/CAM, and robotics. Dr Ibrahim is now the director of the academic relations at Mashreq University in Sudan. He has successfully established a number of agreements with national and international institutions. The most important of which is the agreement to establish an accessibility centre for the students with learning difficulties, which will be the first of its kind at a higher education institution in Sudan. Dr Ibrahim is a full member of the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM) and an associate member of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). He is a quick learner and a self-motivated researcher. He has demonstrated the ability to solve a variety of analytical, technical, and practical problems using creative and innovative approaches.
