Dr Ehsan Mohseni
Senior Lecturer
Electronic and Electrical Engineering
Personal statement
Dr. Mohseni received his B.Sc. in 2006 in materials science, metallurgical engineering and continued his studies on to an M.Sc. program in metal forming processes at the University of Tehran, Iran. Following his working experience in Oil & Gas industry, and because of his interest in the field of Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE), he enrolled in a Ph.D. program at ETS, Montreal, Canada with a focus on automated defect detection and characterization using eddy currents electromagnetic NDE method. In the course of his research activities in Canada, he had collaborations with renowned aerospace industries and manufacturers. Dr. Mohseni has more than 30 conference and journal papers mostly communicated through prestigious international conferences and distinguished peer-reviewed NDE journals. He has been able to deploy his research experience to co-develop agile and flexible automated robotic NDE solutions for welded, additive manufactured, and carbon-reinforced composite components through his appointment as a Lecturer in the advanced Centre of Ultrasound Engineering (CUE) research group at the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering in 2020. He also supports the Royal Academy of Engineering and Spirit AeroSystems research chair, Professor Pierce, assisting with his endeavours of developing a state-of-art multi-million advanced Robotically Enabled Sensing hub. Dr. Mohseni’s current research is aligned with the NDE 4.0 vision and objectives to identify and tackle future NDE technology barriers. His research interests encompass a wide range of NDE techniques and various applications such as joining, additive, metal production line, and composite inspections. More specifically, multi-physics FEM for electromagnetic induction, ultrasound wave propagation and heat transfer, multi-sensor data fusion, machine learning for intelligent NDE data interpretation, and the NDE probability of detection studies forms most of his research undertakings.

- The National Oilwell Varco UK Limited team in Forfar is responsible for the standardisation of non-destructive evaluation (NDE)procedures for our equipment across the globe. Conventional calibration practicedby NOV can be unreliable, as the testing equipment may travel thousands of milesoverseas after the initial calibration. The rigours of the journey could can alter thecharacteristics of the calibration equipment and thus make comparison toequipment in the field unreliable. NOV's oilwell drilling components are oftenmetres in span and extremely heavy, which makes it practically impossible to havestandard reference blocks of the same size as the original equipment. Introducingportable, down-scaled sensitivity pieces for calibration use in the field willtransform the reliability of NDE processes and safety of the components inoperation, minimising the risks of failure and shutdown. The accuracy of amanufactured sensitivity piece is critical: the defects/discontinuities must bereliable and consistent with the piece of equipment targeted for calibration.
Through this KTP, NOV will gain the permanent capacity to design, manufacture,and use sensitivity pieces for in-field inspection of equipment using Phased ArrayUltrasonic Testing (PAUT). - 01-Jan-2024 - 31-Jan-2026
