Biography

Mohammad Zandie gained his BSc in 2018 in Petroleum Engineering at Tehran University, Iran, working on analysing the stresses in pipeline joints of directional drilling operations and enhancing the joint designs (CFD modelling). He graduated as a cum laude with Dean's List Honouree and excellent in term awards for three consecutive years.

He then achieved his MSc in Petroleum Engineering at Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic), Iran in 2020, with the focus on simulating novel hydrocyclone design for oil-water separation using CFD, and ascertaining the ability of artificial neural networks in predicting the separation efficiency of hydrocyclones as a function of structural and dynamical features. 

In 2023, Mohammad obtained his PhD at the University of Nottingham, assessing the addition of gasoline as a novel, cost-effective strategy to improve ignition behaviour of palm biodiesel-diesel blends in a compression ignition (CI) engine (CFD study).

He is currently enrolled in the University of Birmingham and Nationwide Specialist Projects (NSP) Ltd. as a KTP associate to study the CFD modelling of fire and smoke management systems.
