Dr. Scott Holloway

D. Scott Holloway received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Clemson University.  His Ph.D. was received in August 2005.  He also earned a B.S. in mathematics from Lander University in 1998. His M.S. research, sponsored by GE Aircraft Engines, involved CFD prediction of trailing edge film cooling.  The transient simulations helped end a 10+ year long design of experiment issue and resulted in a thesis entitled "Trailing Edge Film Cooling Under Transonic Conditions: Steady and Unsteady Simulations." This work along with others' experiences led to the study of turbulence modeling issues for unsteady RANS-based CFD. This led to his Ph.D. thesis "Development of Turbulence Models for Complex Unsteady Flows: Applications for Automotive and Gas Turbine Industries."  From there, Scott spent over two years working at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab, working on the prediction of missile infrared signatures for projects (Aegis BMD) sponsored by the Missile Defense Agency. Dr. Holloway currently works as a Senior Engineer at the Clemson University Computational Center for Mobility Systems on challenging problems for industrial sponsors using some unique methods available at CU-CCMS.
