Research Abstract
Donald Dabdub is a Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and Professor, Advanced Power and Energy Program at the University of California, Irvine. He completed his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering at the California Institute of Technology in 1995. Dr. Dabdub's expertise is in mathematical modeling of air pollution dynamics and numerical algorithms using high performance parallel computation. His main research effort is to develop new physics and chemistry for air quality models, to design new algorithms for the numerical solution of the governing equations of air pollution dynamics, and to study the impact of various energy-related scenarios on urban airsheds. He presented the Schiesser distinguished lecture at Lehigh University. Furthermore, he was awarded the Prometheus Teaching award for excellence at the University of California, Irvine. Outside of academia, Dr. Dabdub has served as advisor to various state and federal agencies including: The Air Resources Board of California, the California Energy Commission, John Wayne Airport, and the Lake Tahoe Science Consortium.
