Farah Alkhatib

Farah Alkhatib is a Lecturer and Research Officer in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Western Australia. She specializes in computational biomechanics and finite element analysis of vascular systems.

Her research develops patient-specific modeling approaches for abdominal aortic aneurysms, focusing on rupture risk assessment and surgical planning. She won the Graduate Research School Dean's List award for her PhD thesis and has contributed to open datasets for biomechanical research.

Dr. Alkhatib's publications demonstrate expertise in mesh generation techniques, uncertainty quantification in medical image segmentation, and nonlinear biomechanical analysis. She develops computational methods to improve the accuracy of vascular stress predictions and translate biomechanical research into clinical applications.
