Lecturer 2023: Prof. Adrian Bejan

Prof. Adrian Bejan, from Duke University, USA, is the Kimberly-Clark Distinguished Lecturer of 2023.

The title of his lecture is Vascular materials: Predicting Design Evolution, and it will focus on evolutionary design illustrated in the case of multiscale vasculature, a methodology that can be used generally to predict the evolution toward flow access, miniaturization, high density of heat transfer, and the scaling up (or down) of an existing design. An abstract of the talk and a short biography of Prof. Bejan can be found on our website.

The interest in Prof. Bejan’s lecture is already very high, and he has successfully presented it in various institutions from Italy to Japan and the USA. Currently in planning are presentations at the Technical University of Berlin and the University of Arizona.
