Navid Sharifi

Navid Sharifi is a Lecturer in the Department of Mechanical, Industrial and Aerospace Engineering at Concordia University. His research focuses on advanced materials and coatings for high-temperature and tribological applications, including thermal spray coatings, high-entropy alloys, and corrosion-resistant systems.

He teaches courses such as MIAE 221: Materials Science, ENGR 242: Statics, ENGR 244: Mechanics of Materials, and graduate-level courses on advanced materials (MECH 6561/6501). His work emphasizes practical engineering solutions for wear, oxidation, and thermal degradation challenges in mechanical systems.

Key research themes include: tribological behavior of multicomponent coatings, high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying techniques, and aerospace material durability under extreme conditions. He has published extensively on coatings' microstructural evolution, mechanical properties, and environmental resistance.

Labs/Teams: While specific lab affiliations aren't listed, his research aligns with materials engineering and tribology-focused groups within Concordia's engineering programs.
