Luis San Andrés has performed research in lubrication and rotordynamics and advanced technologies for hydrostatic bearings in primary power cryogenic turbo pumps, squeeze film dampers for aircraft jet engines, and gas foil bearings for oil-free micro turbomachinery. Luis is a fellow of ASME, STLE, GPPS, and a member of the Industrial Advisory Committees for the Texas A&M Turbomachinery & Pump Symposia. He earned a MS in ME from the University of Pittsburgh and a PhD in ME from Texas A&M University. Luis has published over 260 peer reviewed papers in various ASME journals and conference proceedings, TPS and ATPS included. Several papers were recognized as the best in various international conferences. Dr. San Andrés received the ASME 2022 Aircraft Engine Technology Award for sustained personal creative contributions to aircraft engine technology.
