Welcome to my private page. I work at New Uzbekistan University, an emerging university in Central Asia, which was funded in 2021. At the Department of Mechanical Engineering, I develop mathematical models, which describe the mechanical behavior of heterogeneous materials. A particular emphasis is placed on the modeling of biological soft tissue.
