Balancing Theory, Programming, and Practical Application for Teaching of Finite Element Analysis Courses
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: My primary teaching assignments in SUNY New Paltz are in the thermal-fluid areas such as Thermodynamics, Thermal System Designs, Fluid Dynamics, and Heat Transfer.As I believe in active learning, group activities in classroom and team projects are the two teaching tools that I utilize most to enhance students mastery on the subjects.Examples of team projects undertaken by students are designs of thermal devices and energy systems and projects inspired by contemporary scientific investigation.My current research topics are motivated by improvement and innovation of engineering designs evolved in sustainable technology.Undergoing research projects include investigations of vortex-induced blade-less turbines and Tesla turbines for renewable energy applications, utilization of thermoelectric semiconductors for cooling, and research on supercritical carbon dioxide and refrigerants for green power generation.Relevant research interest includes numerical simulation of thermal-fluid interaction and biomimetic designs.
