Bio:

Uri Vandsburger, a professor emeritus of mechanical engineering at Virginia Tech, passed away on January 29, 2021. Prof. Vandsburger obtained a bachelor’s degree from the Israel Institute of Technology in 1976. He obtained his master’s and doctorate degrees in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering department at Princeton University. Thereafter, he went to Stanford University to work with Prof. C.T. Bowman in the Mechanical Engineering Department before joining the faculty of the department of mechanical engineering in 1989. He served as an instructor, researcher, and mentor to students until his retirement in 2014. As a researcher, he was also the principal investigator and director of the Virginia Active Combustion Control Group/Reacting Flow Lab. Supported by the Department of Energy, he co-led an initiative to study combustion with his faculty colleague, Srinath Ekkad, beginning in 2013.
