Biography :

Dr. Ahmed S. Dalaq specializes in analytical, computational, and experimental mechanics. He utilizes the principles of mechanics of materials to analyze and innovate in the creation of new bioinspired systems, components, mechanisms, and materials. Dr. Ahmed views nature as an enormous, continuously laboratory that shapes novel materials. Where the conditions inherent in natural systems, can guide intended real life applications. Dr. Ahmed has also developed interest in using Origami principles for the design energy absorbers, harvester and general engineering systems. Additionally, Ahmed focuses on Hearing Protective Devices (HPDs), aiming to design the most effective HPDs while delving into the nature of pain and discomfort associated with these devices. Dr. Ahmed's research areas encompass bioinspired materials, biomimicry, Hearing Protective Devices, mechanics of materials, and biomechanics.
