Abdolhamid (Hamid) Akbarzadeh Shafaroudi
Assistant Professor
Associate Member - Department of Mechanical Engineering
Inspired by biological systems where structural properties are integrated with sensing, actuating, and self-healing, Dr. Akbarzadeh Shafaroudi’s research interest is on advanced multifunctional materials. Due to the multidisciplinary framework of multifunctional materials, the research spans mechanical, civil, electrical, and biological engineering concepts and is also of interest to material scientists, mathematicians, and physicists. Dr. Akbarzadeh Shafaroudi is specifically interested in the multiphysics and multiscale simulation of multiferroic cellular solids, smart and biocomposites, and functionally graded materials using theoretical/computational and experimental methodologies. The application of the research is in energy harvesting, structural health monitoring, green energy production, and sustainable design for various sectors including automotive, agricultural machineries, aerospace, and construction industry.
