Biography:
Michelle S. Hoo Fatt obtained her PhD in Structural Mechanics from the Department of Ocean Engineering at MIT in 1992, her MS in Ocean Engineering at MIT in 1990, and her BS in Mechanical Engineering at MIT in 1987. She was Lecturer/Post-doctoral Fellow in the Naval Architecture and Offshore Engineering Department at the University of California, Berkeley in 1992-93 and a Post-doctoral Associate/Lecturer in Department of Ocean Engineering at MIT in 1993-95. She is currently a Professor in Mechanical Engineering and teaches courses in structural mechanics, dynamics and vibrations while conducting research in blast and impact mechanics, composite structures, and elastomer mechanics.
