Dr. Guerrero earned his master’s and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Texas at Austin and was awarded the Honorary Doctoral degree from Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería in Lima-Peru in 2015. In 2014, he became a member of the Pan-American Academy of Engineering (32 countries). He was the 2015-2016 President of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), an organization of almost 140,000 engineers in 150 countries.Since 2003, Dr. Guerrero has collaborated with MIT professors, graduate students, and WHOI researchers and lectured in engineering at MIT. He developed applications for Draper Laboratory’s technological capabilities and assets in the energy industry, including oil and gas exploration and the nuclear industry. Dr. Guerrero served as a principal research scientist at SLB, where he helped develop robots to convey equipment in horizontal oil and gas wells. He also established numerous research collaborations with professors and students from universities and research centers around the world and led the 2,400-member SLB/Eureka Mechanical Engineering Community in 3 continents and all SLB engineering centers for 5 years. He is fluent in several languages, and loves skiing and swimming, history, economics, and Renaissance Italian art.
William Worek Ph.D.
Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics
Dr. Worek has been involved, over the last 35 years, in the development of desiccant materials for cooling systems applications, modeling of sorption processes, experimental testing of desiccant material performance and the use of desiccant processes in the design of cooling and dehumidification systems. He holds three patents on sorption system design improvements and has published extensively in archival journals and has given numerous lectures on the subject. Also, he has investigated heat transfer enhancements to when nanofluids are boiled. Dr. Worek was chair of the American Society of Mechanical Engineer’s (ASME’s) Solar Energy Division, Vice-President of ASME’s Energy Resources Group and served as a Member of ASME’s Board of Governors. Dr. Worek is Fellow of ASME, Life Fellow of the American Society of Heating Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). He has received Edwin F. Church Medal from ASME recognizing his accomplishments in engineering education and the Frank Kreith Energy Award. In addition, Professor Worek Co-editor of new 12thEdition of Mark’s Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineers, Executive Editor of Applied Thermal Engineering, Editor-in-Chief of The International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer and Heat Transfer – Asian Research. Dr. Worek has consulted worldwide. He was Chair, Mechanical and Systems Engineering Board of the Research Grants Council (RGC) of the University Grants Committee (UGC) of Hong Kong and currently serves the University Grants Committee (UGC), Panel Member and Project Monitor of the Collaborative Research Fund (CRF), the Theme-based Research Scheme (TRS) and the Areas of Excellence (AoE) Funding Schemes Projects.
Tancredi Botto Ph.D.
Sensors and Physics
Dr. Botto is a senior applied physicist and R&D expert. He creates value by translating advanced sensing and measurement needs into practical engineering solutions, leveraging a strong record of creative solutions and a passionate entrepreneurial spirit.
