Dr. Abbas Ballit

Biography

Abbass Ballit is an electrical and electronics engineer graduated from the faculty of engineering in the Lebanese university in 2012, and then, in 2013, he received his Master 2 degree in “industrial control” from the “Ecole Doctoral des Sciences et de la Technologie” in the Lebanese university, cotutelle with the UTC (Univérsité de Technologie de Compiègne) in France.

After working in the construction field for several years, he decided to start his PhD. He started the researches in 2017 in the UVSQ (Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines) in Versailles, France. His project subject is about developing a novel fabrication process of the lower limb prostheses, especially the socket, to replace the currently used artisanal and subjective methods, to reduce the production time and cost of these products.

Abbass’s research interests include biomechanics, study and simulate the behavior of viscoelastic material such as soft tissues of human body, measurement of material elastic properties using different techniques such as ultrasound scan or mechanical indentation, parallel programming, optimization algorithms including machine learning systems and genetic algorithm.. 3D object modeling, manipulation, and dynamic simulation.
