Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Zekeriya Altaç is currently a professor of mechanical engineering at Eskiehir Osmangazi University and he received his B.Sc. degree in 1983 from Istanbul Technical University in Turkey. He received a scholarship from the Ministry of Education of Turkey to study nuclear engineering in the USA. He attended Iowa State University and earned his M.Sc. (1986) and Ph.D. (1989) in Nuclear Engineering. Upon returning to Turkey, he worked as an assistant professor at the Mechanical Engineering Department of Anadolu University between 1989 and 1992 in Eskiehir, Turkey. Later, he joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Eskiehir Osmangazi University as an associate professor in 1993 and received a tenuretrack position in 1998, where he is currently working. His areas of interest and expertise are computational nuclear reactor physics, computational fluid mechanics and heat transfer, and numerical (computational) methods in general. He is the author of over 100 journal articles, conference and research papers, books, and book translations. The author has books in Turkish on computer programming (BASIC, FORTRAN) and the application of CFD software (ANSYS, FLUENT). Most of his research deals with developing efficient numerical methods and/or employing computational techniques in practical scientific and engineering problems. He served as an advisor at the Von Karman Institute Technical Advisory Committee (VKI-TAC) in Brussels, Belgium, between 2009 and 2011. He has also served as Eskiehir Osmangazi Universitys vice president (2007-2011), as head of the Mechanical Engineering Department (2012-2021), and held positions on numerous conferences, symposiums, and academic committees, such as the engineering college board and university senate.
