Professor Farbod Alijani

Precision and Microsystems Engineering
Delft University of Technology (TUDelft), The Netherlands

Biography:
Farbod Alijani started a position as Assistant Professor on October 15, 2015 in the Department of Precision and Microsystems Engineering, Faculty 3mE at TU Delft. Farbod was born in Tehran, Iran in 1981. He received his Msc in 2006 and PhD in 2011 both from Tehran Polytechnic University with honors, specializing in non-linear vibrations and stability of shell-type structures. During his PhD, he spent one year as a Graduate Research Trainee at McGill University in Canada, and later became a Postdoctoral Scholar in the same institution working at Vibrations and Hydrodynamics Laboratory from 2012-2015. Before joining TU Delft, he also spent six months as a Research Associate in the Department of Industrial Engineering at University of Parma in Italy. Farbod’s research activities are focused on identification, understanding and modeling of non-linearities in structures with and without fluid-structure interaction. His long term objective is to develop a study addressing open problems in non-linear dynamics and fluid-structure interaction at macro, micro and nano scale with innovations in experimental, theoretical and numerical investigation.

Research Interests:
Non-linear vibrations, Experimental modal analysis, Bifurcation dynamics & Chaos, Non-linear identification, Composite structures, Reduced-order modeling, Fluid-structure interaction, Dynamics of MEMS & NEMS
