Mohammed Daqaq wins Abu Dhabi Award for Research Excellence from Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge (ADEK) for his proposed research project titled "Exploiting B-stability to Develop a Novel Broadband Point Wave Energy Absorber".

Mohammed F. Daqaq is serving as the technical chair of the ASME Smart Materials, Adaptive Structures and Intelligent Systems conference that will be held in Louisville, KY.  The conference is considered the leading event for the dissemination of knowledge in the field of smart materials. This year the conference is featuring 200 presentations by leading experts in the field. Visit SMASIS website for more information.

Mohammed F. Daqaq publishes a graduate textbook titled “Dynamics of Particles and Rigid Bodies: A self-learning Approach”. The book is published by Wiley and ASME press and fills the void in the academic literature by providing a uniquely stimulating, “flipped classroom” approach to teaching particle and rigid body dynamics which was developed, tested and refined by the author over the course of many years of instruction at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. 

Mohammed F. Daqaq served as the technical co-chair of the ASME Smart Materials, Adaptive Structures and Intelligent Systems conference that was held in San Antonio, Texas, USA.  The conference is considered the leading event for the dissemination of knowledge in the field of smart materials. This year the conference featured 260 presentations by leading experts in the field.
