MSc Theses

Approximately 3 MSc theses supervised to completion each year since 2011 (~40 in total across additive manufacturing, residual stress, welding, fatigue/fracture, and gas-turbine component analysis).

Based on information supplied by Dr. Nakhodchi in September 2026. Future dates indicate expected completion.

Research infrastructure development

Established an ICHD residual stress measurement facility (machine + software) and 3D-printing capability at K. N. Toosi University of Technology (2 FDM + 1 Food 3D printer + 1 Fused Granular Fabrication 3D Printer)
