Gholam-Ali Mansoori (born in 1940), G. Ali Mansoori also known as "GA Mansoori" is an Iranian-American scientist known for his research within energy, nanoscience, nanotechnology, statistical mechanics and thermodynamics.[1][2][3] He is a professor-emeritus at the Departments of Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering and also Physics at University of Illinois at Chicago.

Life and education

Mansoori completed his BSc at the University of Tehran (summa cum laude) in 1963; MSc at the University of Minnesota in 1966; PhD at the University of Oklahoma in 1969 with a dissertation on "A Variational Approach to the Equilibrium Thermodynamic Properties of Simple Liquids and Phase Transitions". Mansoori did post-doctoral work at Rice University under supervision of Thomas W. Leland, Jr., all degrees in chemical engineering[4]

Career

Mansoori contributed to over 600 publications including ten books,[5] some of which became text-book references in energy, nanotechnology, statistical echanics and thermodynamics. The most cited work he has co-authored is "Equilibrium thermodynamic properties of the mixture of hard spheres" in The Journal of Chemical Physics in 1971[6] with about 3000 citations as of January 2024.[7]
