Biography
Dr. Rajab Ali Malookani earned his Master of Science (M.Sc) in Mathematics from University of Sindh, Jamshoro in the year 2004. In the same year, he joined as a research assistant in the department of Basic Science and Related Studies (BSRS) at Mehran University of Engineering and Technology, Jamshoro. He served this institution for about three years and joined as a Lecturer (Mathematics) in the department of Mathematics and Statistics, Quaid-e-Awam University of Engineering, Science and Technology (QUEST), Nawabshah in the year 2008. In the January 2012, Dr. Malookani was awarded a scholarship under the Faculty Development Program of Higher Education Commissions (HEC) of Pakistan to pursue PhD. In the spring of 2012, he was accepted into the doctoral program in the area of “Vibrations of Conveyor Belt Systems” of Mathematical Physics group in the Department of Applied Mathematics, Delft University of Technology, Netherlands. During his PhD journey, he presented his research work in local and international conferences related to the field of dynamics and vibrations in various countries such as Netherlands, Austria, USA and Pakistan. In addition, he also visited various countries such as Germany, Belgium, France, Hungary, Italy, Spain, Austria, Luxembourg, Slovakia, Czech Republic and USA for historic and culture reasons. He received his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Applied Mathematics in the Department of Mathematical Physics in 2016. He has authored and co-authored more than thirty research papers in HEC recognized journals. After returning to Pakistan in 2016, Dr. Malookani joined as an assistant professor in the department of Mathematics and Statistics, QUEST, Nawabshah. At present, he is working as a professor in the department of Mathematics and Statistics and Head of Department (HoD) in Mathematics department QUEST, Nawabshah. He is currently supervising several Master and PhD students in the department. His research interests include stability analysis of dynamical systems, vibrations and wave analysis of mechanical and structural systems and applicability of asymptotic methods in continuous systems.
