Ms. Maham Mujahid is a mathematics researcher whose work centers on advanced fluid mechanics, with a particular emphasis on viscous and non-Newtonian fluid flows, nanofluid behavior, heat and mass transfer processes, and rheological analysis in complex geometries such as corrugated and curved channels. Her research integrates analytical and computational techniques, including perturbation methods and numerical simulations, to investigate pressure-driven flows, magnetized and hybrid nanofluids, nonlinear fluid models, slip and convective constraints, porous media effects, and entropy production in multiphase or biological flow environments. She has contributed significantly to the understanding of transport phenomena by publishing in high-impact international journals, covering themes such as Casson, Jeffrey, and Carreau-type fluids, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, permeability, and metachronal wave motion. Her scholarly contributions also extend to hybrid nanofluid modeling based on Yamada–Ota and Xue frameworks, demonstrating her command of emerging areas in thermofluid systems. Alongside her research activities, she has gained substantial teaching experience at both undergraduate and graduate levels in courses related to calculus, linear algebra, integral equations, differential equations, numerical analysis, and fluid mechanics, consistently integrating theoretical knowledge with practical scientific applications. She is skilled in Mathematica, MATLAB, and various computational and productivity tools, enabling precise modeling, visualization, and academic communication. Her broader interests include computational fluid dynamics, non-Newtonian rheology, and the study of thermal and multiphase transport in engineered and natural systems, reflecting a strong commitment to advancing mathematical and physical sciences through research, teaching, and continuous professional development.
