Ciarán O’Connor

I am an engineering professional with two decades experience of applying advanced simulation and software development techniques to design, analysis and software projects in the oil and gas, automotive, aerospace, white goods and packaging industries. In recent years I personally designed and built ESI Groups new Modular MATerial model (MMAT) software, which is a library of advanced material model algorithms now used extensively at VW-Audi-Porsche Group and Renault-Nissan for a wide range of applications in their vehicle development simulation programmes.
