Assistant professor Tony Saad received his bachelor’s in mechanical engineering from Notre Dame University in 2003, a master’s in mechanical engineering from American University in Beirut, and a doctorate in mechanical engineering from the University of Tennessee Space Institute. He was a postdoctoral fellow for the U’s Institute for Clean & Secure Energy.
Saad’s research is focused on developing numerical methods and simulation tools for studying variable density, multiphase, turbulent reacting flows. He’s also working on advancing the state of the art in analytical methods for theoretical and applied fluid dynamics using perturbation theory.
