Seeking a Teaching Position in Mechanical Engineering
Ph.D. Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University of California, Irvine, USA, 1998.
M.S. Mechanical Power Dept., Cairo University, Egypt, 1992.
B.S. Mechanical Power Dept., Cairo University, Egypt, 1987.
Assistant Professor: Cairo University, Egypt, 2001 – date. Heavily involved in teaching Fluid Mechanics courses to different levels of students. Involved in teaching a biofluid mechanics course for biomedical engineering students. Occasionally taught the following courses: Numerical Methods in energy sciences, Engineering Statics, Engineering Drawing and Mathematics.
Assistant Professor: British University, Egypt, 2008. Taught a course in Fluid Mechanics.
Researcher: CAPSCU, Center for advancement of post-graduate studies and research in engineering sciences, Cairo university, Egypt, 2008. Contributed in a technical committee for the investigation of the causes of the failure of compressors inlet guide cones of turbo expanders at UGDC-Port Saied-Egypt.
Researcher: Cairo university, Egypt, 2007. Performed the necessary computations for the simulation of the fluid flow in a novel washer based on jet technology. The jet technology was to replace the prevailing principle of rotation of the cloth to be washed.
Senior Researcher: Ritec, Research, Industrial, training and Engineering services Company, Cairo, Egypt, 2003 – 2006, Developing computer programs for fluid flow analysis of hydro-dynamically lubricated bearings.
Associate Researcher: University of California, Irvine, USA, 1999 – 2001, developed mathematical and numerical models for studying droplet spreading, solidification and oxidation during plasma spraying processes.
