Jurij has joined UBIETY recently as a Senior Electronics Hardware Engineer. He received his MSc in Electronics Engineering with special focus in IC design. However, Jurij claims that in all his conscious life, he has been developing electronics devices and equipment. “I was always involved in multiple projects that are not limited to a single industry and require broad knowledge and fast learning”, says Jurij. “I have probably worked in all fields of electronics for the past 17 years, covering analogue, digital, and RF circuit design—from initial concept through to mass production.” Over the course of his career, Jurij has developed a wide range of advanced devices, including RF Software Defined Radios, LTE base stations, Bone Conduction headsets, various medical and Lab automation instruments, vehicle diagnostic device, Transceiver IC, iOS app. He is passionate about solving complex engineering challenges with elegant, efficient, and practical solutions. “I enjoy staying hands-on and combining technical depth with broad system-level thinking” says Jurij, and that is the sort of technical expertise that UBIETY was after and found in Jurij so that he can develop it further. Fun facts: Being 12 years old, Jurij made an amplifier from an old vinyl player (without any understanding of audio amplifiers) and used it to listen to hard rock. Designed a Bone Conduction headset for the construction industry that got into Top-100 innovations of 2021 by the Times magazine. Jurij didn’t like literature classes in school, but published a book - a collection of hooligan poetry of classic poets!

Nghia is an engineer with expertise in developing signal processing algorithms applied to radio-frequency data, especially ultrasound signals. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2012. From 2012 to 2014, he was a Post-Doctoral Research Associate with the Los Alamos National Laboratory, where he developed image reconstruction methods for medical ultrasound tomography. He was a Senior Research Associate in the Medical Imaging group at the University of Cambridge afterwards, where he developed beamforming methods to enhance ultrasound image quality. Prior to joining UBIETY, Nghia had worked for three years in industry on the area of aerospace navigation, where he applied his beamforming techniques to anti-jamming devices and anti-spoofing technologies. Nghia has published many papers in journals and conferences on imaging science and medical imaging. In free time, he is keen on playing sports, spending time with his family and giving scientific talks to primary school children.

The Third General Assembly of ENCASE took place at University Technology Compiègne (UTC), France, on November 21st/22nd, 2024. ENCASE is an EU funded project that brings together Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage researchers, operators, manufacturers, academia, and SMEs to increase competitiveness in the industry. Dr Wes Maru participated in the GA representing our effort in three areas of deliverables for Liquid and Supercritical CO2 metrology – namely: a) The Development and Commissioning of Novel Compact Prover as a Primary Standard, b) Flow Simulation Development for UBIETY Meter and c) Development and Testing of High Resolution Ultrasonic Flow Meter  ENCASE is organised in 7-work packages where the interaction and knowledge transfer between, and the key deliverables from each work packages is expected to dramatically alter our understanding and utilisation of such technologies as the primary engineering solutions in the global effort to reduce emitted carbon dioxide.

Guido is a physicist with a broad experience in fluid mechanics. He holds a PhD in Applied Geophysics and Hydraulics with focus on Lagrangian particle tracking and Large Eddy Simulation (L ES ) . He has worked in academia, industry and as a consultant, dealing with food and personal care products, HVAC, polymer production, naval architecture and geophysical flows – for firms such as Unilever R&D, Danish Hydraulic Institute (DHI) and Saipem Energy Services.  Guido has authored several publications in peer reviewed journals and has disseminated his project findings at several leading international conferences. Collaborating closely with our team of specialized engineers and scientists, Guido joins us as we expand our recruitment to match our ambition of creating high performance teams that deliver our objectives. Guido will bring his significant experience in fluid mechanics and multi-phase CFD simulation as well as digital twins. In his free time, Guido likes to spend quality time with his family and friends.

Dr Wes Maru has just returned from The 3rd General Assembly meeting of the ENCASE project which took place last week at the Politecnico di Milano Piacenza Campus , and at the LEAP s.c.a r.l. Tecnopolo Piacenza .

Ravi has just completed an MSc in Analogue and Digital Integrated Circuit Design from Imperial College, London with Distinction. He was involved in the design and implementation of support vector machine (SVM) as a machine learning model for image classification on an FPGA, which will have relevance for our work in UBIETY. Whilst still in his undergraduate studies, Ravi was involved in a research area where he authored a few journal and conference papers on topics including “A highly reliable radiation tolerant 13T SRAM cell for deep space applications”, Microelectronics Reliability (133) 114527, 2022.
