Faces of research in the department
Dr. Colin Bradley
Dr. Colin Bradley is a Professor with the Department of Mechanical Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering. In this video, Colin talks about the international collaborations taking place to develop more advanced telescopes.
Dr. Brad Buckham
Dr. Brad Buckham is a mechanical engineer and professor at the University of Victoria. In his research, he works with wave energy converters and examines the use of wave energy as an alternative, innovative, sustainable resource. In this video he describes the creation of a wave database at UVic, and explains wave energy's potential value for the province of BC.
Dr. Rustom Bhiladvala
Dr. Rustom Bhiladvala is an Assistant Professor with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Victoria Faculty of Engineering. In this video, Rustom talks about his work on developing small structures for biomedical engineering and alternative energy systems.
Dr. Curran Crawford
Dr. Curran Crawford is a mechanical engineer and professor at the University of Victoria. He specializes in sustainable energy systems, such as wind and tidal turbines and plug-in hybrid vehicles. In this video, he discusses his research with wind turbines, such as the creation of computer models of the turbines to make them more efficient and more cost effective as an energy resource. He also discusses his research on demand side management, which is a system that allows alternative energy resources to be used most effectively.
Dr. Ned Djilali
Dr. Ned Djilali is a mechanical engineer, Canada Research Chair in Energy Systems and Computational Modelling, and a professor at the University of Victoria. In this video he discusses his research with fuel cell technology, and renewable energy systems. He also explains the difficulties and benefits of renewable energy on the electrical energy grid.
Dr. Sadik Dost
Dr. Sadik Dost is a Professor with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Victoria. In this video, Sadik explains why crystal growth is behind every electronic device currently on the market and how is research is helping develop new technologies for solar energy conversion and medical imaging.
Dr. Rodney Herring
Dr. Rodney Herring is a scientist and engineer and a professor at the University of Victoria. In this video he describes his various imaging devises, or microscopes, and their various functions. He describes the most powerful microscope in the world that will be coming to the University of Victoria.
Dr. Peter Oshkai
Dr. Peter Oshkai is a Professor with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Victoria. In this video, Peter talks about his research on fluid mechanics and its effects on the design of mechanical systems.
Dr. Yang Shi
Dr. Yang Shi is with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Victoria and ranks in the top one per cent of the most cited researchers in his field in the world—a remarkable accomplishment for a young researcher. In this video, Shi discusses his research on the long-distance control of machines and electrical systems, also known as networked control systems.
Dr. Afzal Suleman
Dr. Afzal Suleman is a Professor with the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Victoria and is the Canada Research Chair for Computational and Experimental Mechanics.
