Mahesh Hariharan completed his Bachelors’ in Civil Engineering at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Calicut, India in 2014. The same year, he pursued his Masters in Transport and Logistics with specialization in Transportation Engineering at TUM Asia in Singapore. Over the next 3 years, he spent time at the Institute of Rail, Road and Airfield Research of TUM in Germany, working together with Doctoral and Post-doctorate colleagues on different projects in the field of dynamic forces generated due to wheel-rail contact using Multi-Body Simulation (MBS) and Finite Element Modelling (FEM).\u00a0<\/p>

In 2017, he joined TUM Asia as Research Associate and Assistant Faculty Head in Railway Engineering. He has been constantly building and developing the Railway Engineering specialization of the Masters in Rail and Urban Transport offered at TUM Asia. There is a strong demand among working professionals in the railway industry to upskill themselves in this field. Together with the faculties and experts from Germany, he helped set-up the perfect environment at TUM Asia to help engineers with their lifelong learning journey.\u00a0<\/p>

He has organized several highly intensive training programmes for Railway practitioners, aspirants and engineers in Singapore and overseas, mainly for Public Transport Operators with Government backing. Since 2024, he is also part of the Executive Education and Business Development Department of TUM Asia, with primary focus on developing bespoke training and Overseas Immersion Programmes for local and overseas entities.\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

His research is mainly focused on wheel-rail track coupling dynamics. With more than 7 years of experience in programme and project management, his lectures focus on the modelling aspects of rail infrastructure using CAD-FEM and MBS tools, which helps students simulate and validate their models by incorporating theoretical concepts into numerical tools. \u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
