Biography

Dr. Mohamed Bassam Wafa Nabhan holds a position of Associate Professor at University of Bahrain, College of Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering. He has completed his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from University of Salford, UK. His areas of teaching include Fluid Mechanics, Applied Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Tribology and Industrial Preventive Maintenance Management, Mechanical Engineering Drawing, and basic courses in Manufacturing Processes, Industrial Management, and Materials Science. He has run many student projects and supervised 6 master’s thesis. His research activity is mostly in the field of Tribology, in particular in the areas of hydrodynamic lubrication and complex lubricants, and industrial maintenance, His interest focuses on subsequently developed in the areas of thermos-fluids and heat transfer, cooling towers, wettability of falling thin film and film breakdown and the effect of absorbent properties on the absorption process in a falling film absorber. He attended number of workshops, seminars and trainings. He has published 3 research articles in journals. He is also serving as reviewer for conferences and journals. He is member of Institution of Mechanical Engineers (MIMechE), U.K, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), USA, International Solar Energy Society (ISES), Australia, Association of Jordanian Engineers (AJE), Jordan, and International Association of Engineers (IAENG).
