I have received B.Eng. and M.Sc. degree both from the University of Surrey, United Kingdom and I am currently a research engineer in autonomous-vehicle control and simulation of a cyber-physical system group at University of Surrey, working on three EU-funded H2020 TrustVehicle, OBELICS, and Sys2Wheel projects. I have recent three publications along with contribution in a book chapter. I have worked on two heavy-duty vehicles with Ford Otosan, one light commercial vehicle with Tofas-Fiat and three electric race car projects wherein it received the Santander award for the most improved EV. My current research interests lie in electric vehicle powertrain simulation, ECU coding, advanced driver assistance systems, modern vehicle dynamics, and EV/HEV.
