He is also the recipient of CSME's I.W. Smith Award in 2023 from the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering. Professor Akbarzadeh joined McGill as an Assistant Professor in 2015 after two and half years of research on architected cellular solids as an NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow in the Mechanical Engineering Departments at McGill University and the University of New Brunswick. He completed his PhD studies in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of New Brunswick in 2013 working on the multiphysics simulation of smart advanced materials. Prior to his PhD, he received his MSc in the Mechanical Engineering Department (Solid Mechanics) at Amirkabir University of Technology in 2009 and his BSc degree in the Mechanical Engineering Department (Solid Mechanics) at Isfahan University of Technology in 2007. Professor Akbarzadeh exploits Fundamentals of solid mechanics, Computational multiscale and multiphysics simulation, and Advanced manufacturing (3D printing and laser engraving) to develop the next generation of architected multifunctional materials and structures with unrivalled multiphysical properties. His research and training program at AM3L is aligned with systematic design, multiscale multiphysical modeling, and 3D printing of programmable and smart multifunctional metamaterials and metastructures. To date, his contributions have led 6 patent applications/reports of invention and 124 published articles in high-impact journals such as Advanced Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, Advanced Science, Nature Communications, Energy Storage Materials, Nano Energy, Carbon, and Acta Materialia.
