Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Nihal Ahmed's research centers on materials science, with a particular focus on tribology and the development of wear-resistant coatings and composites. Recent work includes investigating the tribological properties of MoS2 coatings, examining the role of chromium underlayers, and studying the impact of Ti3SiC2 Max phase addition on Ni-Cr coatings. Ahmed has also explored novel composite materials, such as polyetheretherketone/polytetrafluoroethylene composites reinforced with titanium silicon carbide for conveyor chute applications. Beyond materials science, Ahmed has contributed to computational studies, including the comparative analysis of finite difference methods for heat convection-diffusion equations and the finite element analysis of automobile leaf springs. Recent publications also indicate work in the area of deep learning for land use scenario modeling.
