Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Hashem Rafii-Tabar is a British-Iranian professor and scientist within computational physics and nanoscience. He is primarily known for his contribution to the computational physics of nanostructures with important applications such as Carbon Nanotubes. Rafii-Tabar's book "Computational Physics of Carbon Nanotubes" published by Cambridge University Press was the first to cover this field and has been republished several times while gaining a text-book statue within the computational physics. In 2000 after around 40 years of living in the UK, he moved to Iran and started as the Head of The School of nanotechnology at Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences until 2015. He is now a distinguished professor of physics at Department of Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences. In 2006 he achieved the title of Iranian Science and Culture Hall of Fame (Ever-lasting Names) for his work in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Rafii-Tabar has been also active in the research field of treatment of nonlocal elasticity theory as applied to the prediction of the mechanical characteristics of various types of biological and non-biological nanoscopic structures with different morphologies and functional behaviour, contributing to scholarly output such as "Computational Continuum Mechanics of Nanoscopic Structures". He has also worked in disease diagnosis field developing nanosensors for early detection of cancer biomarkers and also conceptual designs for nanodevices that can identify and destroy individual cancer cells.Several of his former students and supervised researchers are now university lectures in Asia and Europe (en)
