Biography
In 1973, Dr. Sanduk received his Diploma in Telecommunication technology from the Higher Institute for Telecommunications and Post in Baghdad. In 1983, he received his BSc degree in Physics from Baghdad University. In 1990, Dr. Sanduk received his PhD in Plasma physics from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST). He was assistant professor and undergraduate Programme director then head of Laser and Opto-electronic Engineering Department, Al Nahrain University, in Baghdad-Iraq.
Dr. Sanduk is member and chartered physicist of the Institute of Physics. He acted as expert reviewer to Cambridge University Press, and many refereed journals. His main research interest is the foundation of quantum mechanics. But he looks to the world and life via a theoretical physics approach.
In 2008, Dr. Sanduk joined the Â鶹ÊÓƵ. In 2010, he joined the (MSc) of Process and Information Systems Engineering (PISE). In 2015, he contributed in Transitions to Low Carbon Energy Economy programme of the Centre for Environmental Strategy (CES).
ResearchResearch interests
Orcid:
- Foundation of Quantum Mechanics: An approach is based on two bases, the model of two rolling circles and partial observation of the model. The observation acts as a transformation that leads to an analogy of relativistic quantum mechanics. This approach is called “Rolling Circles Theoryâ€
- Renewable energy technology: Improvement of the technology and its utilisation.
- Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD): Transport of charged particles within MHD model. With same scope of MHD, Dr Sanduk is interested in Magneto-Electrochemistry, to study the effect of fields to modify Hydrogen production.
