Biomedical engineer and PhD researcher developing low-cost 3D imaging, digital image correlation, and 3D-printed prosthetic socket design methods for clinically relevant biomechanics.
Hi, I'm a PhD candidate in Mechanical Engineering at University of Galway. My research focuses on 3D digital image correlation, biomechanics, and medical device engineering, with applications in prosthetics, soft tissue mechanics, and skin-device interaction.
My work combines experimental mechanics, imaging system design, and computational analysis to develop low-cost, open-source tools for full-field biomechanical measurement. I design and build custom multi-camera imaging systems, develop 3D reconstruction workflows, and apply these methods to clinically relevant problems.
Current projects include high-resolution 3D skin strain imaging, prosthetic socket design, and multi-camera motion capture systems using Raspberry Pi hardware and open-source software. I'm particularly interested in translating engineering research into practical tools for healthcare and rehabilitation applications.
