Konstantin graduated with a BEng in Mechanical Engineering from University College London (UCL) and an MSc in Robotics and Autonomous Systems from the University of Bath. He then spent a year at the UCL Great Ormond Institute of Child Health working on computational models to predict outcomes in craniofacial surgery, as well as studying the morphology and material properties of cranial tissue.

Research Project

Title: Computational Digital Twin Modelling for Impact Reconstruction and Traumatic Brain Injury in Sports

Research into head trauma often overlooks the significance of the upper-body and neck biomechanics due to the complexities involved in modelling the active muscular response to an anticipated impact. Konstantin’s DPhil project aims to develop Physical and Digital Twins to introduce active musculoskeletal dynamics to computational modelling of impacts in contact sports.
