TEACHING EXPERIENCE
- Developed and taught one year graduate level seminar “Computational
Fluid Dynamics”,
Department of Mechanical Engineering, the
University of Akron, 1994-95
- Developed and taught “Building Better products with CFD” – 3-day hands-on
class that
is focused on teaching applied CFD methodology to
industrial engineers and graduate
students. Topics include fluid structure interactions,
chemically reacting flow, heat
transfer, stress and electrostatic loading.
- Developed “Plasma Modeling and Simulation” – 3-day hands-on class
that focuses on
various plasma systems used in semiconductor
and material processing. Class materials can
be found at http://www.phys.spbu.ru/Class/index.html
-Taught various classes for industrial engineers – Basic to Advanced
CFD-ACE+
- co-developed graduate experimental class “Heat Transfer in
Space Systems”,
Department of Space Vehicles, MAI, 1989
