Biography

Dr. Mohamed F. El-Amin Mousa is a full professor of applied mathematics and computational sciences at Effat University, Saudi Arabia. He has over 25 years of research experience in computational sciences, applied mathematics, transport in porous media, heat/mass transfer, fluid dynamics, turbulence, reservoir simulation, etc. After obtaining his Ph.D. in 2001, he held research positions at several universities, including South Valley University (Egypt), Stuttgart University (Germany), Kyushu University (Japan), and KAUST. Dr. El-Amin is a scholar fellow for two prestigious foundations, Alexander von Humboldt (AvH), Germany, and the Japanese Society for Promoting Science (JSPS), Japan. The research of Dr. El-Amin has resulted in around 190 publications, including journal/conference papers, chapters, and books. He also edited several journal special issues and organized workshops and conferences. He just authored one book that will appear soon in Elsevier entitled “Numerical Modeling of Nanoparticle Transport in Porous Media."
