Benoit Cushman-Roisin

Benoit Cushman-Roisin is a Professor of Engineering Sciences at the Thayer School of Engineering, Dartmouth College. His research focuses on environmental fluid mechanics, industrial ecology, and sustainable design. He holds a BS in Engineering Physics from the University of Liège (1978) and a PhD in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics from Florida State University (1980). He serves as Editor-in-Chief of Environmental Fluid Mechanics and teaches courses such as Environmental Fluid Mechanics (ENGS 151) and Sustainable Product Design (ENGS 171). His academic contributions include pioneering work in turbulent dispersion modeling and industrial ecology simulation tools.

• Adjunct Professor at the University of Nova Gorica, Slovenia
• Co-organizer of the 'Modelling of Oceanic Vortices' colloquium
• Author of textbooks like Introduction to Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
• Recipient of two U.S. patents: 'Turbo-compressor-condenser-expander' (2013) and 'Geometry of heat exchanger with high efficiency' (2015)

His research integrates theoretical fluid dynamics with practical environmental applications, emphasizing sustainable engineering solutions for resource management and energy efficiency.
