Navid Goudarzi

Dr. Navid Goudarzi is an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Cleveland State University, where he directs the Multiscale Multiphysics Modeling and Data-Driven Analysis of Thermofluids (M³TFluiD) Laboratory and is Co-Director of the Center for Integrated Modeling for Energy, Resiliency, and Sustainability (IERS). His research investigates fundamental thermal-fluid and transport phenomena across spatial and temporal scales. He develops efficient, physics-informed predictive frameworks through multi-fidelity surrogate modeling, reduced-order modeling, and data-driven learning. His work spans built environments, urban and atmospheric flows, wildfire transport, energy infrastructure, and advanced air mobility. Dr. Goudarzi is an NSF CAREER Award recipient and has contributed to 20+ funded projects totaling $4M+. He has 90+ journal and conference papers, three book chapters, three patents, and multiple best paper awards. He served as Technical and Conference Chair of the ASME Po
