Dr. Mohamed Lotfy Taha Hassan's Biography
Dr. Mohamed Lotfy completed his Bachelor, 2001, M.Sc., 2006, and Ph.D., 2013, from Aerospace department, Faculty of Engineering, Cairo University. He is currently an Assistant Professor in Aerospace department, Faculty of Engineering, Cairo University (CU). His research has been focused on Aeroservoelasticity through which he formulated finite element models for investigating aero-thermo-elastic behaviour of laminated composite panels. He designed and developed an integrated nonlinear panel flutter analysis software. His research interests have been fostered by four years of practical research on composite structures at Aerospace Research Center, Arab Organization for Industrialization. Dr. Mohamed Lotfy is encouraged to proceed his future research in elastic tailoring of composite structures of wind turbine blades. He is also interested in the field of rotordynamics, control, vibration based condition monitoring techniques and their applicability on wind turbines.
Currently Dr. Mohamed Lotfy joined a team in the centre of excellence for predictive maintenance in British University in Egypt (BUE) to design a high speed centrifugal pump which will be a part of desalination station.
He has gained a valuable experience in teaching and leading undergraduate students as he joined many universities as a part timer and a full timer like Suez Canal University (SCU), The British University in Egypt (BUE), Misr University for Science and Technology (MUST), and Institute of Aviation Engineering and Technology (IAET). He is teaching many subjects like: mechanics of composite materials, structural analysis, Theory of Elasticity, Theory of thin plates, automatic control, mechanical vibrations, finite element analysis, Artificial intelligence, measurements and instrumentation, Robotics, and programming. Moreover, currently, he is supervising postgraduate students in their M.Sc.’s and Ph.D. in the areas of wind energy, fracture mechanics, and vibration of turbomachinery. He joined industrial engineering environments more than ten years. His professional experience has provided him with a broad view that is useful in relating academic life to the real world.
