Work Record:
Air Force Institute of Technology Graduate School of Engineering
WPAFB OH Dayton OH
1975 - Present Professor of Aerospace Engineering
Responsible for the department’s offerings and research effort in the field of solid and material mechanics.
Responsibilities include: (1) Director of the Structural and Solid Mechanics Division consisting of five faculty members. (2) Recently elected President of the Faculty Senate (3) Developed and supervised the research for doctoral dissertations and Master of Science theses in the areas of composite materials, fracture mechanics, high energy impact, nonlinear mechanics, vibrations and plates and shells. (3) Taught three to four graduate courses per year specific area of interest (4) Advised the junior faculty in their research and teaching efforts (5) Prepared and supervised the preparation of proposals to obtain research funding (6) Administrative adviser for five graduate classes within the department (7) Member and former Chairman of the Institute’s Doctoral Council (8) Former Chairman of the Institute’s Promotion and Tenure Committee (9) Former Chairman of the Department’s Promotion and Tenure Committee.
In conjunction with my doctoral students, I have developed three different computer programs incorporating a through-the-thickness-compatible nonlinear shell finite element, and both the Lagrangian and Jaumann stress-strain relationships were used. In addition, a finite element program was developed that evaluates the visco-plastic effects at high temperature on crack extension or closure on fatigue loading. Recently work has been pursued in the area of high velocity impact.
1968 – 1975 University of Bridgeport, Bridgeport, Connecticut, Chaired Professor of Mechanical Engineering 1963 1963 – 1966 University of Connecticut, Stamford, Connecticut, Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering
1955 – 1963 Prior to entering teaching in 1963, I worked as a project engineer on advanced structural analysis for several consulting firms in the New York City area.
Private Practice - I was involved in a part-time consulting engineering practice dealing primarily in the solid mechanics area. The service considered a wide range of problems from fracture failure to large shell structural analysis. I am registered in the state of Ohio.
