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 Lecturer at Mechanical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, British University in Egypt. His research has been focused upon 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. Lotfy is encouraged to proceed his future research in elastic tailoring of composite structures. He has gained valuable experience leading undergraduate students as he is teaching many subjects like: mechanics of composite materials, structural analysis, Theory of Elasticity, Theory of thin plates, automatic control, mechanical vibration, finite element analysis, 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.
