Mehdi Karimi Curriculum Vitae

Key Qualifications:
Mehdi Karimi has more than 4 years of experience in numerical modelling of metocean
phenomena and also sediment transport and marine pollutions modeling. He has been involved
in, among other high profile coastal engineering projects, the Monitoring and Modelling Studies
of Coastal Zone of Hormozgan Province Project to be named as one of the biggest coastal
engineering projects in the Middle East. In this project which covers a 1500 km coastline,
numerous measurements were performed a long with various modelling activities i.e. 30 years of
wind and wave hind cast, 62 years of storm analysis, tidal modelling, 3d modelling, sediment
and morphological modelling, etc. This project was performed under supervision of Sogreah
consultants (France). Mehdi was the major member of this project. He cooperates with Sogreah
and GlobOcean companies in the offshore wave and wind modelling and sediment transport.
During his Master thesis, he studied Integrated Numerical Modeling of Oil Spills, Sedimentation
and Transport of Oil in Sediment Laden in Marine Waters. In his thesis, An Integrated 2DH
numerical model based on Eulerian approach including hydrodynamics, suspended sediment
transport and oil-slick transport modules has been developed. FVM method and ADI
(Alternating Direction Implicit) scheme have been employed for disceritization and solving
governing equations. The second order Lax-Wendrof and second order central difference
schemes have been used for advective and diffusive terms respectively. Multiphase oil spill
model (MOSM) approach has been taken to simulate oil slick and flow interaction. All three
modules of the numerical model have been validated against experimental data.
Mehdi has also been involved in designing of multiple ports in Iran. He specifically performed
the hydrodynamic modelling studies and also designed the breakwaters. The Padideh port in
Kish and Hendorabi new pot can be names as highlights. Besides I have experience in Numerical
programming (FORTRAN) and Also, I've developed many programs in MATLAB.
