Ayhan Ince, professor in the Department of Mechanical, Industrial and Aerospace Engineering, has been named Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).
The fellowship is awarded to elected members of the society to recognize their outstanding achievements in the field of mechanical engineering, and contributions to the engineering profession and to ASME. The Fellow grade is a distinction among ASME members.
Ince has been a faculty member at the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science since 2017. His research focuses on computational modeling in fatigue and fracture, machine learning-based deformation and damage modeling and peridynamics-based damage approaches.
Over the course of his career, he has worked for General Motors Defense and General Dynamics Land Systems. He was also a faculty member at Purdue University in West Lafayette, United States, prior to joining Concordia. Ince holds a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Waterloo.
The ASME is a not-for-profit professional organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, and skill development across all engineering disciplines. It helps the global engineering community develop solutions to real world challenges.
Ince officially received the fellowship title on October 19, 2023.
