Mohamed Amer is a materials researcher and mechanical engineer with expertise in materials testing and characterization, coatings, and sheet metal forming using finite element modeling. He completed his PhD in Materials Science at Coventry University, focusing on cracking behavior of thermal barrier coatings under thermal mechanical loading and supporting image-based modeling techniques. Mohamed holds an MSc in Mechanical Engineering, where he investigated ductile damage prediction in aluminum alloys, and a BSc in Mechanical Engineering from Helwan University. His current research aims at developing and evaluating the performance of high-temperature metallic alloys, particularly austenitic steels operating in the 500-600 °C range. He addresses the limitations of traditional trial-and-error alloy development by integrating combinatorial experimentation and thermodynamic calculations to design compositions that improve phase stability. By employing high-throughput bulk processing techniques, he enables parallel testing and efficient characterization of multiple alloy variants, contributing to the accelerated design of durable, high-performance materials for energy, aerospace, and industrial applications.
