Caleb Amy

Caleb is studying to earn a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from The Georgia Institute of Technology. He is advised by Dr. Asegun Henry, and his research focuses ultra-high temperature liquid metal heat transfer, and the energy systems that surround this technology. He previously interned at Siemens Energy in gas turbine casing design where he supported design and analyst engineers in the casing group. At Lockheed Martin, he designed and fabricated test equipment: learning to design for machinability, reliability, and economy. While earning his BSME at The University of Central Florida, he conducted undergraduate research, advised by Dr. Subith Vasu, focusing on biofuel characterization. This work included magnetic mixing tank actuation and design and procurement/fabrication of an extreme condition spherical vessel for combustion experiments. He has also been heavily involved with ASME: as Treasurer and President of the UCF student section, as Chair of the Student Regional Board of the Southeast United States, and as chair of the East Human Powered Vehicle Challenge in 2014. He was also selected as The Charles T. Main Silver Award recipient in 2015. He continues his involvement with ASME leadership with the Technology Advisory Panel and review of energy research papers. He enjoys biking, hiking, and travelling.
