Dr. Marwan Hameed

An active researcher and academic, Dr. Marwan Hameed serves as an Assistant Professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department at AUBH.

Dr. Hameed’s primary research interests include bioengineering, computational heat transfer, and fluid flow. His research, funded by the American Heart Association Grant, employs multi-scale Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling to investigate a novel surgical procedure within the “hybrid” approach. His research has contributed to a comprehensive program that combines engineering and medicine by utilizing computational modeling to assist in the treatment planning of congenital heart disease. His research focuses specifically on the hemodynamics of a hybrid approach to comprehensive surgery for single ventricle congenital heart disease.

Prior to joining AUBH, Dr. Hameed served as a visiting professor at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, USA. During his Ph.D. studies, he was also assigned the role of Head Graduate Teaching Assistant for three years. Additionally, he supervised both graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Central Florida, USA. Prior to dedicating his time to research, Dr. Hameed worked as a Mechanical Engineer, where he focused on heating and cooling systems for new hospitals.

Dr. Hameed earned his Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, USA, and his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Central Florida, USA.
