Biography

Dr. Mohamed H. Salim is a senior scientist at Technische Universität Berlin, Germany and a Professor of Mechanical Power Engineering at the Faculty of Energy Engineering, Aswan University, Egypt. He received his PhD in Architectural Engineering from the University of Tokyo, Japan, in 2009. His international research experience includes positions at the University of Tokyo, the University of Hamburg, Humboldt University of Berlin, and Technische Universität Berlin. His research focuses on urban microclimate, computational fluid dynamics, and numerical modelling of atmospheric flows and heat transfer. He contributes to the development and application of the PALM and MITRAS models, with particular interests in building-resolving large-eddy simulation, three-dimensional radiative transfer, vegetation–atmosphere interactions, and outdoor thermal comfort. His work examines how urban form, surface properties, and vegetation influence airflow, temperature, and human heat exposure, including under hot-arid conditions. Dr. Salim combines expertise in mechanical engineering and atmospheric modelling to support climate-sensitive urban planning and heat mitigation. He also serves as a topical editor for Geoscientific Model Development and reviews manuscripts for international journals in urban climate, building physics, and environmental modelling.
