Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMahmoud Zidan is a structural and computational engineer with 7 years of experience, currently shaping lightweight and special structures at schlaich bergermann partner in Germany. He combines MSc-level expertise in computational mechanics with hands-on experience in form-finding, FEM and CFD (OpenFOAM) to deliver rapid conceptual designs and robust numerical solutions under tight deadlines. At SL Rasch he led form-finding scripts in Rhino/Grasshopper, coordinated a nine‑partner international consortium for a crowd management proposal, and performed wind-tunnel–grade simulations to optimize steel‑glass and membrane systems. His background in academic model order reduction and custom Python GUIs for nonlinear finite element teaching tools highlights a strong blend of research-driven methods and practical tooling. Notably, he shortens design cycles by automating iterative form-finding workflows, enabling more ambitious yet buildable lightweight architectures.
