Miss Habiba Lais
Qualifications: BEng, PhD
Dr Habiba Lais received the Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering, specialising in the development of a non-invasive ultrasonic cleaning technique, from ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ in 2019.
Habiba enrolled at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ in 2011 to pursue Engineering with an Integrated Foundation year and progressed onto Aerospace Engineering. She completed an industrial placement year 2014/15 at Brunel Innovation Centre (BIC) as a Project Technical Assistant. During her time at BIC, Habiba worked on InnovateUK funded fouling removal projects using high power ultrasonic transducers.
In 2016, Habiba recevied a First Class Honours in Aerospace Engineering B.Eng. with Professional Development. Upon graduation, she returned to BIC as an NSIRC PhD student (finded by EPSRC and accredited by ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½), to continue research in non-invasive fouling removal using ultrasonics, whilst assisting on related InnovateUK projects.
Habiba joined BIC in 2018 as a research Assistant to continue her research in ultrasonic cleaning for off-shore applications.
Her research features a wide scope of disciplines to include ultrasonic transducers, vibration analysis, simulations and bubble dynamics. Habiba has authored in several peer-reviewed journals and conferences; Most notably in Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, a leading international journal in the field of acoustics and ultrasonics.
