Biography

Md Jaynul Abden completed his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering in March 2022 from Western Sydney University, along with MPhil in Material Science from Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology (CUET), Bangladesh, in 2014. His Ph.D. project focused on the integration of form-stable phase change materials (FSPCM) into building components for regulating the thermal energy of the indoor environment. In August 2022, he took up a postdoctoral research fellow position at Western Sydney University's School of Engineering and Built Environment. Before this, he spent over a year as a research assistant with three industrial partnership projects at Western Sydney University (WSU). From 2010-2017, he worked in different faculty positions (Lecturer and Asst. Professor) at International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC), Bangladesh. His research typically occurs at the interface between established scientific disciplines, i.e., physics, biomedical, materials science and engineering. Because of this, in his work Dr. Abden adopt's a multi-scale, multi-disciplinary approach in areas that include material physics and engineering, flexible electronics, energy storage devices, and renewable and sustainable energy.

Areas of Research / Teaching Expertise

Energy-efficient building materials and technologies.

Protect the environment through low-emission technologies such as the carbon capture and storage chain.

Structural applications of composite materials, including fibre-reinforced polymer.

Experimental/numerical assessment of buildings under thermal energy and star rating.

Development of cost-effective and reliable energy storage solutions. This will create commercial opportunities and bring significant environmental benefits in accelerating the shift to renewable energy and achieving carbon neutrality.

Development of a new generation of electrochemical energy storage devices. Supercapacitors have been used in a wide range of applications. However, the fast-growing energy storage demands require energy storage devices with higher energy and higher power density and depend on sustainable materials.

Development of multifunctional wearable integrated microelectronic systems (IMESs) for applications in flexible electronics and energy storage devices.
