Mohammad Hassan Peerhossaini (Persian: محمد حسن پیرحسینی) is the legacy research chair in Urban Resilience and Sustainability and emeritus professor at Western University.[1][2] He is also a distinguished professor emeritus at the Astro-Particle & Cosmology (APC) Lab of the Université de Paris Cité, France.[3] As a physicist and mechanical engineer, his research interests include biophysics, physics and mechanics of fluids, and an interdisciplinary approach to energy.

Biography[edit]

Peerhossaini was born in Isfahan, Iran. He received his engineering education (MSc) in Mechanical Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Tehran (Iran), his Ph.D. studies in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University (USA), and his Science Doctoral studies in physics at the Sorbonne Université (France).[4] Before joining Western University,[4] Peerhossaini held distinguished professor positions at the University of Nantes (France), and the Université Paris-Diderot (became Université de Paris Cité).[5]

Research and awards[edit]

Professor Peerhossaini’s research interests cover a range of topics in biophysics and conventional fluid dynamics. These include the physics of bacteria and its applications,[6] physics and mechanics of fluids, turbulent mixing, chaotic advection, heat transfer, and engineering and societal approach to energy.

Professor Peerhossaini was director of Laboratoire de Thermique et Énergie of the University of Nantes[7] and CNRS (National Center for Scientific Research, France), co-founder and director of Paris Interdisciplinary Energy Research Institute of the Université Paris Cité and CNRS.

He was also deputy director of the Interdisciplinary Energy Program of CNRS, member and vice president of the 62nd section of the National Council of Universities (Conseil National des Universités-CNU),[8] and Délégué Scientifique at the High Council for Evaluation of Research and Higher Education (Hcerés).[9]

He is a member of Haut Comité de Mécanique of France.[10] In 2013, Peerhossaini and his team received the American Society of Mechanical Engineers’ Lewis Moody award in recognition of his contributions to turbulent micro-mixing.[11]
