Undergraduate Research Assistant (Powertrain Systems)
-
Apr 2019 - Sep 2020
Investigated potential fuel savings for an innovative powertrain system for extended range electric vehicles with series hybrid architecture. The new powertrain system developed is the first to use a combined cycle gas turbine instead of an internal combustion engine for series EREV. Study culminated with a journal article published at the “Energy Conversion and Management” journal, and a conference paper proceeding from Sia’s 2020 FISITA Congress.

Undergraduate Research Assistant (System Dynamics)
-
Apr 2019 - Sep 2020
Awarded a $4,500 undergraduate research grant to investigate the effect of different potential policies for the transportation sector in Lebanon in order to reduce emissions, focusing on the adoption of e-bikes. The Lebanese transportation sector has been modeled using system dynamics, with mode share calculations.

Conference paper for the 1st GCC IEOM Conference held at Riyadh: This study uses system dynamics modeling to estimate the potential reductions of fuel use and CO2 emissions from cleaner electrified truck technologies, combined with using electric rail for heavy freight transport. Modeling results showed potential reductions of 38% to 49% in 2040 compared to the baseline no-action scenario, depending on the share of electric light duty trucks. This can counter the significant growth trends… Show more Conference paper for the 1st GCC IEOM Conference held at Riyadh: This study uses system dynamics modeling to estimate the potential reductions of fuel use and CO2 emissions from cleaner electrified truck technologies, combined with using electric rail for heavy freight transport. Modeling results showed potential reductions of 38% to 49% in 2040 compared to the baseline no-action scenario, depending on the share of electric light duty trucks. This can counter the significant growth trends from freight transport, as needed to transition the entire transportation sector in Lebanon to a more sustainable future.
