معرفی
Suresh Dhaniyala is the Bayard D. Clarkson Distinguished Professor in the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering at Clarkson University and Co-Director of the Center for Air and Aquatic Resources Engineering and Sciences (CAARES). He is affiliated with the Coulter School of Engineering & Applied Sciences and the Institute for a Sustainable Environment. His research focuses on aerosol characterization, particle resuspension, and environmental sensor development, supported by NSF, NASA, and industry partners.
Education: B.Tech (Naval Architecture, Indian Institute of Technology, 1992), M.S. (Mechanical Engineering, University of Delaware, 1994), Ph.D. (Mechanical Engineering, University of Minnesota, 1998). Postdoctoral work at Caltech (1999–2002) before joining Clarkson in 2008.
Research interests include aerosol physics, filter performance under low-pressure conditions, and planetary aerosol sampling (e.g., Venus missions). His work bridges environmental engineering, aerospace instrumentation, and public health, with notable contributions to low-cost sensor accuracy and bioaerosol identification via nanopore sequencing.
Key projects involve aircraft-based aerosol sampling systems (e.g., AERACEPT probe for Venus missions), particle resuspension from rough surfaces, and climate literacy education for engineers. His funding sources include NSF, NASA, NYSERDA, and DTRA.
