Arts et Métiers ParisTech

France

Mohamed EL MANSORI is a Professor at the Department of Mechanical, Material Science and Manufacturing Engineering, Arts et Métiers ParisTech (France) where he leads the Mechanics, Surfaces and Material Processing Laboratory (MSMP-EA-7350)/Engineering. He is appointed as TEES
Research Professor at TAMU (USA) and is the Director of the TEES-TAMU-ENSAM joint research cluster.

He served as Deputy General Director in Charge of Research & Innovation at the Arts et Métiers ParisTech, France. He is also the chair of the Mechanical Engineering and Manufacturing Research Group (LMPF-EA4106) at the Châlons-en-Champagne campus. including at Aix-en-Provence, Châlons-en-Champagne and Lille.

Mohamed EL Mansori received B.Sc degree in Physics from the University of Hassan II (Casablanca, Morocco:1993), and Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering from the Institut National Polytechnique de Lorraine (Nancy, France:1997). Following his doctoral work trained as a post-doctoral researcher at the Center for Advanced Friction Studies of the Southern Illinois University, USA.

His current research interests include the interface of thermo-mechanic characteristics of both metallic and composite materials and physics behind their tribological and manufacturing performance. His research interests within the past decade has centered on tribological characteristics of engineering systems and multiscale advanced manufacturing processes. These activities have led to the formation of a new research team which conceived and developed the concept of multi-scale process signature in conjunction with a new tribo-energetic approach for the fundamental understanding of advanced and sustainable manufacturing processes involving lightweight synthetic and/or natural reinforced composite materials, energy-efficient manufacturing processes, advanced tribological studies and new process development for improved product performance and sustainability, etc. The main interest of this approach is to “bridge the gap” between the traditional academic approaches and the industrial requirements. He has published more than 160 papers in JCR referenced international journals and contributed to more than 200 international and national conference proceedings.
