Director of Fatigue and Stress Analysis Laboratory, Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering Department, University of Waterloo. Dr. Jahed is a renowned researcher in the fields of plasticity, cyclic plasticity, continuum mechanics, and durability of metals under cyclic loads. He has over 200 scientific publications and has trained more than 75 PDF, PhD, and MASc students in these fields. Working closely with various industries, especially automotive, he has developed a number of cyclic plasticity-based fatigue life prediction models with direct application to design of structural parts in the transportation industry. He has been teaching different subjects in his research field to over 4000 undergraduate and graduate students over the past twenty years and has received a number of teaching awards including the Sandford Fleming Teaching Excellence Award.
Postdoctoral Fellow, Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering Department, University of Waterloo. Dr. Roostaei works in the field of cyclic plasticity of metals, specifically magnesium alloys. He has developed a new cyclic plasticity model applicable to wrought magnesium alloys, which exhibit unusual plastic flow characteristics under cyclic conditions. During the model development process he completed a comprehensive review of these models into numerical code for the purpose of comparing the results of his model in similar loading cases. He has published over a dozen articles in peer-reviewed internationally renowned journals.
