Profile
Dr Rezwanul Haque is a Senior Lecturer, Engineering (Manufacturing) at USC.
Dr Haque obtained his PhD from Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia. He has research experience in a wide range mechanical engineering research in innovative fields such as Embedded Railway Track, Self-Piercing Rivet (SPR) and Residual Stress. He has completed pioneering work in measuring residual stress in rivets of relatively small dimension using neutron diffraction. He has work experience on several research projects funded by the Victorian Government and in collaboration with CAST CRC, AUTO CRC, Henrob (UK) Pty Ltd, GM Holden and Kwik-Coat Pty Ltd. Rezwanul’s achievements include prestigious grant to achieve nuclear beam time at Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization (ANSTO) in successive three years (2010, 2011 and 2012) and at ISIS (UK) in 2013.
Rezwanul collaborates with researchers at Swinburne University of Technology, The University of Adelaide, RMIT University, Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Politecnico di Milano (Italy) and ANSTO. Although he has a wide range of research interest, currently he is focusing on joining of sheet metals by different techniques such as SPR, welding, clinching and adhesive bonding.
