About
Dr Khorasani is a globally recognised AM leader, holding a PhD and six fellowships in 3D printing of metals and polymers for industries including Airbus, Boeing, and Ford. His ARC-Industry Fellowship led to create a digital twin model using conventional simulation techniques like Finite Element Model (FEM) and Discrete Element Method (DEM) for MJF of polymeric parts. His high-impact projects include a 2022 MDO collaboration with the US and Australia Ford, yielding numerical tools for MJF simulation of safety-critical parts. In 2021, he advanced micro-scale MEX modelling for Boeing's polymeric cabin components. For Airbus, he optimised air-manifold production via machining and AM at Aeronamic (Netherlands, 2018), developing cost-time models for PBF efficiency. In medicine, his 2017 project on implant printing created a roadmap for customised hip implants, emphasising design and post-processing for PBF components.
