Prof. Dan Zhao is the director of Master Engineering Studies at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. He serves on a number of scientific journals as the chief and associate editors such as AIAA Journal, Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Aerospace Science and Technology, and Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power (ASME). Prof. Zhao has been awarded with the prestigious fellowships from Engineering New Zealand, European Academy of Sciences and Arts, European Academy of Sciences as well as the ASEAN Academy of Engineering and Technology. His research expertise and interests include applying theoretical, numerical, and experimental approaches to study CO2-free combustion science and technology, fabric drying, aeroacoustics, thermoacoustics; UAV aerodynamics; propulsion; energy harvesting; and renewable energy and fuel (ammonia and hydrogen) Dr. Dixon has published numerous scientific research papers in turbomachinery and lectured in turbomachinery at the University of Liverpool for nearly 40 years. For 25 of those years he was Chief Examiner in Mechanics for the Council of Engineering Institutions in the UK. Dr. Hall has been University Lecturer in turbomachinery at the University of Cambridge since 2005. His current research with the university’s Silent Aircraft Initiative has led to the development of radical new ideas for aircraft engine design. Prior to teaching, he worked at Rolls-Royce as a turbomachinery aerodynamicist.
