Biography
Hamza is a Research Associate in the Particle Technology Group within the University of Sheffield’s School of Chemical, Materials and Biological Engineering. As part of the NEXTRODE project, his research focuses on using discrete element method (DEM) modelling to understand and optimise battery-electrode manufacturing processes. In particular, he investigates how electrode calendering affects microstructure and, ultimately, battery performance.

Before taking up his current role, Hamza spent four years conducting doctoral research within the same group, investigating dry-electrode manufacturing through powder-spreading additive manufacturing. During this time, he undertook a four-month internship as a Modelling Intern at Tesla in Fremont, California, where he gained experience in dry-electrode manufacturing through PTFE fibrillation.

Before beginning his PhD, Hamza graduated from the University of Sheffield in 2017 with first-class honours and worked in industry on process optimisation and scale-up using novel technologies.​
