معرفی
John Dolbow is a Professor in the Thomas Lord Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Duke University, with secondary appointments in Civil and Environmental Engineering and Mathematics. He is a Bass Fellow and holds leadership roles as Associate Vice President for Research & Innovation since 2024.
- Education: B.S.M.E. (University of New Hampshire, 1995), M.S. (Northwestern, 1998), Ph.D. (Northwestern, 1999)
- Research Focus: Computational fracture mechanics, phase-field modeling, hydrogels, and multiphysics problems in geomechanics and biomedical engineering
His recent work advances phase-field methods for fracture nucleation, hydraulic fracturing in geothermal systems, and laser lithotripsy simulations. Dolbow leads Duke's Computational Mechanics Laboratory, integrating civil, mechanical, and materials science approaches.
Key contributions include:
- Erratum corrections for computational mechanics frameworks
- Nitsche-stabilized methods for interface constraints
- Phase-field models for surfactant-driven particle raft fracture
- Multi-resolution approaches for hydraulic fracture simulation
- Embedded FEM techniques for moving boundary problems
Scientific Recognition:
- R. H. Gallagher Young Investigator Award (2005)
- Robert J. Melosh Medal for Finite Element Analysis (1999)
- DOE Computational Science Graduate Fellowship (1997)
- DOE CSGF Steering Committee Chair
