Mamzi Afrasiabi

Mohamadreza (Mamzi) Afrasiabi is currently a Senior Scientist at the Advanced Manufacturing Laboratory of ETH Zurich. He was previously a research scientist at inspire AG, developing a new C++/CUDA software for particle-based simulation of additive manufacturing processes. The overarching theme of his research lies in the interface between multiphysics modeling and computational sciences. More specifically, the use of high-performance (parallel) computing and particle methods for simulating machining operations, CFD, and complex dynamic phenomena, as well as the adoption of Level Set techniques for moving interfaces. He wrote his doctoral dissertation on “GPU-enhanced meshfree simulation of manufacturing processes”, which he successfully defended at ETH Zurich in June 2020. Some capabilities of the software tool he has developed during his Ph.D. are showcased external pagein this video.

Prior to joining ETH Zurich in 2014, Mamzi received his M.Sc. in Computational Mechanics from the University of Tehran and pursued his postgraduate research at Prof. Soheil Mohammadi's High-Performance Computing (HPC) Lab. In addition to serving as a site manager in several mass-construction projects between 2011 and 2014, Mamzi spent his undergraduate internship at Partana Consulting Group in the “Central Bank of Iran” project in 2007.
