Jasim Imran
Associate Professor and Graduate Director
Dr. Imran’s area of specialization is water resources engineering. His major research
interests are interdisciplinary in nature and involve application of fluid mechanics
to study flow processes of both engineering and geophysical significance. Dr. Imran
and his research team pursue basic and applied research in the fields of river mechanics,
sediment transport, density and turbidity current, mass gravity flow, and stratified
flow.
