Biography
Mohsin Rafique is a postgraduate researcher in the Department of Engineering at King’s College London.
He is undertaking his doctoral research within the Centre for Net Zero, under the supervision of Dr Christos Skamniotis. His project focuses on the finite element modelling of thermal stresses in complex solid geometries and/or the computational fluid dynamics modelling of hydrogen flow within these structures. The research aims to support low-carbon innovation.
Mohsin holds a BEng in Aeronautics from Shenyang Aerospace University (2015–2019), and an MSc in Aerospace Engineering from Teesside University (2022–2024). His postgraduate training included CFD, FEA, and advanced structural analysis — skill sets now central to his current work on hydrogen and thermomechanical system modelling.
Mohsin is a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) and regularly engages in interdisciplinary research events and technical forums.
