Mohamed Salah Braham is a PhD candidate in Materials and Mechanical Engineering at the Université de Picardie Jules Verne (UPJV), France, within the Laboratoire des Technologies Innovantes (LTI). His doctoral research focuses on the optimization of metallic bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) through additive manufacturing, combining experimental and numerical approaches. He holds a Master’s degree in Materials Engineering and Industrial Management from the National School of Engineers of Sfax (ENIS), Tunisia, where he built a solid foundation in materials science, mechanical behavior, and process optimization. His multidisciplinary background enables him to bridge experimental investigations with digital modeling, particularly in the field of sustainable energy materials. In his current research, Mohamed Salah investigates the influence of Selective Laser Melting (SLM) process parameters on the mechanical, microstructural, and electrochemical performance of stainless-steel bipolar plates used in PEMFCs. His work integrates multiphysics modeling using ANSYS Fluent (PEMFC add-on) to simulate gas, heat, and water transport within the fuel cell, aiming to identify optimized channel geometries that enhance efficiency and durability. Motivated by the need for cleaner and more efficient energy systems, Mohamed Salah’s research contributes to advancing the industrial viability of hydrogen fuel cells through innovative materials design and digital simulation.
