Complementary Resources for Tomorrow

Dr Ahmad Vasel-Be-Hagh is an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering and founder of Fluid Mechanics Research Laboratory (https://sites.tntech.edu/fmrl/) at Tennessee Technological University. He develops analytical models, numerical simulations, and laboratory/field experiments to add physical insight to the understanding of fluid mechanics for more accurate prediction and control of flows. Applications of his research include wind turbines and wind farms, aircrafts and submarines, marine hydrokinetic devices, and mechanical energy storage technologies. He has more than 20 publications in scientific journals. He has edited three books for major publishers including Springer and Taylor & Francis, as well as multiple journal special issues for Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments (Elsevier) and International Journal of Sustainable Energy (Taylor & Francis).
