Mohammad Rahiminejad was a Ph.D. student in the doctoral program of Mechanics at EPFL from 2018 to 2022. His main research centered on building physics examining how the thermo-hydrodynamic behavior of airflow in a ventilated cavity behind traditional and modern (BIPV) external claddings impacts the thermal performance of the entire building envelope. To tackle this topic, he took a multidisciplinary approach that encompasses numerical analyses, CFD simulations, and experimental measurements. Before joining EPFL, he worked as a project manager assistant in Shiraz, Iran, on quite a few industrial projects including the design of the ventilation systems of the Tehran-Shomal Freeway, design of the air conditioning systems of the Shiraz subway, and the design of the air exhaust and jet fan systems of the Shiraz longest underpass. He holds a master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Sharif University of Technology, Iran, where he investigated water purification through monolayer graphene membranes using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation. In his bachelor's degree from Shiraz University, he successfully achieved publishing a journal paper in the field of biomechanics that, for the first time, addressed the distribution of the pressure and velocity fields in the human upper airway during sneezing.
