Israa Dheyaa Khalaf AL-Rubaye
Born in Baghdad, Iraq in 1989, I nurtured a fervent ambition to pursue a PhD in engineering from an early age. Graduating from the University of Technology with a bachelor's degree in 2012, I subsequently obtained a master's degree in industrial engineering from the same institution in 2016. Embarking on my professional journey, I commenced as a planning engineer at Land Transportation Company before transitioning into my doctoral studies. Presently, I am in my third year as a PhD student in the Smart Industry Department at UNIPI in Pisa.
Electrical Discharge machining, Machining Processes, Cryogenic Treatment, Vegetable based oil (Biodiesel).
My research is focused on the green environment parameters of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM). EDM is a non-traditional, thermal, and electrical machining used to cut complex shape parts and hard to cut materials. I want to improve the efficiency of EDM process, by using different technologies that could increase the material removal rate, decrease the total processing time, and use ecofriendly materials that provide a green environment for both machine and operator’s safety.
I had the privilege of participating in the 10th International Conference on Manufacturing and Industrial Technologies, hosted in Budapest, Hungary from January 25-27, 2024. During the event, I showcased my research on the "Influence of Graphene Coating on Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) Utilizing a Graphite Electrode."
