Amir Poursaee
Dr. Amir Poursaee is an Associate Professor in the Glenn Department of Civil Engineering and Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Clemson University, USA. He received his BS in Materials Engineering from the University of Tehran and his MS and PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Waterloo, Canada. His primary areas of research include corrosion and electrochemical behaviors of metals, specifically steel bars in reinforced concrete structures, concrete materials, structural health monitoring, and nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques. Prior to joining Clemson University, Dr. Poursaee worked as research assistant professor at Purdue University for three years and as senior engineer for more than ten years in different fields of materials engineering including corrosion, quality control, NDE and failure analysis. In 2018, he received the prestigious Humboldt fellowship for experienced researchers in recognition of his scientific work. It enabled him to spend a year in the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung GmbH (MPIE) in Dusseldorf, Germany, and conduct research related to corrosion. He is a registered professional engineer in Ontario, Canada, and serves as a member of the editorial board of the Advances in Civil Engineering Materials (ACEM) journal, published by the ASTM.
