Meet the team:
| Dr. Khan has research interests in computational and experimental heat and mass transfer with special interest in heat transfer during manufacturing processes and solidification of metals. He is also interested in heat and mass transfer in packed beds and natural convection in enclosures. His secondary research interest is environmentally conscious manufacturing and life cycle analysis of products. |
| Dorothy Laub is an undergraduate in Mechanical Engineering at the University of South Carolina. She plans to attend graduate school in the field of Environmental Engineering. |
| Dr. Lyons is an associate professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of South Carolina and the Project Leader for the NSF Gateway Coalition Materials Program Area. In addition to educational methodology research, his scholarly activities include microstructural influences on the high-temperature deformation and fracture of metallic materials and development of design properties for reinforced thermoplastics. |
| Kenneth Miller is a graduate student in Mechanical Engineering. His research is in medium strain rate behavior of mechanical joints, primarily spot welds. He plans to earn his PhD 1998 and continue in research and teaching. |
| Matthew Moore is currently a graduate student at USC getting his MS in Mechanical Engineering. His area of research includes the design, manufacture, and analysis of applied mechanisms. He is currently involved in the DOE funded project known as ARIES, which is an autonomous robot used for nuclear containment inspection, under his advising professor Dr. David N. Rocheleau. Matthew, along with Dr. Jed S. Lyons, played a key role in the design and production of the Casting/Phase Diagram Laboratory. |
| Matt Phaneuf is an undergraduate in Mechanical Engineering. Currently, he is working as a research assistant to Dr. Jed Lyons and is a member of the St. Stephen's Fishlift Flow Modification senior design project team. He is also on active duty in the Navy and hopes to return to the nuclear propulsion program after his commissioning. He can be contacted using the E-mail link at the bottom of this page. |
