I focus on microstructure characterization and the mechanical properties of metallic materials, particularly in the areas of powder metallurgy, additive manufacturing, and metalworking. I work with both conventional metallic materials such as steel and non-ferrous metals such as titanium alloys and nickel-based alloys, as well as advanced materials.

Teaching: I am responsible for the following courses offered at the division of materials science:

• T0021T, Material and manufacturing, 7.5 credits
• T7001T, Deformation and fracture, 7.5 credits
• T7028T, Metal Working, 7.5 credits

I teach some modules in the following courses:

• T0028T, Materials Science and Engineering: an introduction
• T0029T, Materials Processing
• T0026T, Production, Automation and Materials
• T7004T, Surface Engineering

Supervision: Main and Co-supervision

• Sudhanshu Gangwar in project 'BEYOND Existing Superalloys for High Temperature Performance – ATI 273'.
• Patrick Kiprotich Korir WISE industrial doctoral student (Höganäs AB) in project 'Sustainable Solution for High Performance Powder Metallurgy steels through master alloy method'
• Rahman Faiz Suwandana doctoral student focusing on studying the rheology of slag in Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF)

Research:I am involved in the following research projects:

• Full scale integrated modelling of metal working (FINBEAM2) (finished November 2025)
• Nationella flygtekniska forskningsprogrammet — NFFP8
  • BEYOND Existing Superalloys for High Temperature Performance – ATI 273
