Overview
I am a PhD student at the Welsh school of Architecture at Cardiff University with a focus on studying sustainable materials in general and cob in particular. My current research mainly concerns bio-stabilizing sustainable art-based construction materials to achieve better structural and hygrothermal performance in order to improve the thermal comfort perception of users within small housing units in Jordan. Besides, I am a holder of a Masters of Science degree in Computational Methods in architecture with a distinction from the Welsh School of Architecture at Cardiff University since 2020. In 2017, I have received my BSc degree in architectural engineering from Al-Ahliyya Amman University in Jordan with an Excellent grade. My research interests are currently focused on optimising sustainable building materials, environmental experimentation and simulation, in addition to building energy and thermal models. My non-research interests are mainly concerned with game development and programming.
