Meet the right teacher, the right mates

Searching through the website, AHMAD FARHADI was very lucky to find a non-traditional processing laboratory consistent with his interests. In this way, he met his mentor, Professor Zhao, who gave him scientific and detailed guidance in the subsequent scientific research life,and taught him see problems with a broader vision. At the same time, he frequently communicated with the teacher, when encountering some problems, and actively learned various experimental skills,which made him affirmed by his tutor. Certainly, the students around him also gave him a lot of support and encouragement to help him overcome the differences when he just came to China.

Seriously research and achieve self-transcendence

Fortunately, AHMAD FARHADI applied for a scholarship from the Chinese Government Scholarship (CSC-A1), which made him have no worries about his study and life. His PhD subject is a novel field, and there are not many references to learn. Therefore, he conducted a more in-depth analysis,and tried many methods to explore the mechanism behind it, and introduced his own ideas for innovation. During this period, he used the finite element module in the COMSOL Multiphysics software to simulate the fluid flow and debris removal in the gap. In addition, he also used Matlab to simulate the process mechanism, and finally a number of results were published in core journals. In the end, he won the honor of an outstanding graduate of Shanghai Jiaotong University, marking a perfect end to his PhD life.
