معرفی
Naglaa Elagamy is an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at Ontario Tech University. She holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Carleton University (2015), an M.A.Sc. in Engineering from Alexandria University (2002), and a B.Sc. in Engineering from the same institution (1994). As a licensed Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in Ontario (2016–present) and a Certified SolidWorks Associate (CSWA), her expertise spans advanced composite materials, micro-CT imaging, stress simulation, and fatigue assessment of composite structures. Her research focuses on predicting progressive damage in materials and applying micro-CT for quantitative and qualitative damage analysis in carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). She has also explored aerodynamic performance optimization of small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) through propeller design studies.
Elagamy’s publications and presentations emphasize interdisciplinary approaches, combining experimental techniques like micro-CT with computational methods such as the Cohesive Zone Model and Finite Element Analysis. Her work addresses challenges in composite material durability, structural integrity, and multi-mode fatigue behavior. Beyond research, she contributes to teaching core mechanical engineering courses, including Kinematics and Dynamics of Machines, Statics, Solid Mechanics, and Computer-aided Design. Her professional recognitions include the Carleton University Development Grant (2014) and the AUD Recognition for Services (2018).
Her advising and grants activities are not explicitly detailed here, but she has secured funding for her research at Carleton University. She is affiliated with the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science and collaborates with industry and academic conferences such as SAMPE and CAMX. While specific lab affiliations are not mentioned, her research aligns with cutting-edge structural and materials analysis within the department.
