My profile

Biography

I have been teaching and doing research for the past 16 years. I got the  Bachelor and Master of Engineering degrees at the Federal University of Technology Akure Nigeria. In 2007, I secured the Monbukagakusho (Government of Japan) Scholarship to pursue a Doctoral degree in Mechanical System Engineering at the University of Hiroshima, Japan. Shortly after my doctoral degree, I did some collaborative researches with MAZDA motor company, Japan. From 2013 to 2014,  I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Clean Combustion Research Center, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Saudi Arabia. In 2014, I joined the City, University of London as a Research Fellow doiing a collaborative research with Shell Global Innovations. I left City, University of London  in 2016 to take up lecturer position at the School of Engineerng, Division of Mechanical Engineering Manchester Metropolitan University. UK.

My research works are published in reputable journals and  have been well cited according to google scholar.I have presented my research findings in many international conferences on subjects related to Fuels, optical diagnostics, computational fluid dynamics and Advance Combustion Engines. I am a recipient of the Society of Automotive Engineers Best Paper award at the 2010 Small Engine Technology Conference, Linz Austria.

I am a member of the Institute of mechanical engineers and a UK Chartered Engineer. In addition, I am a member of the Combustion Institute and Society of Automotive Engineers.
