Ujjwal Bharadwaj
Ujjwal joined the Asset Integrity Management section within the Structural Integrity Department at TWI in December 2009, having completed a four-year stint researching for a doctorate at Loughborough University with secondment to TWI. His doctorate on risk based asset management is the culmination of his work on a number of projects at TWI that entailed research from a risk/reliability perspective. These projects included offshore wind farms, ships, reliability databases, and looking into the feasibility of developing a probabilistic version of Crackwise.
Ujjwal read for an MSc in risk management at the London School of Economics (2003). He is a tutor at the University of Reading on the risk analysis and decision making module for distance-learning MBA students. He has over eight years of experience in the maintenance of machines and electronic equipment in a number of sectors including power plants, refineries and the railways in the UK and in India, where he did his BEng in Electrical and Electronics Engineering (Mangalore University).
