John A. Pelesko (born c. 1968) is an American mathematician. He is provost and senior vice president for academic affairs at New Jersey Institute of Technology, (NJIT). Previously, he was Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Delaware and a Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences.[1][2]

Biography

[edit]

John grew up in Roselle, New Jersey and attended Roselle Catholic High School from which he graduated in 1986.[3] Pelesko graduated with a B.S. in Pure Mathematics with cum laude distinction from University of Massachusetts Boston in 1992.[4] He received his PhD from New Jersey Institute of Technology in 1997 where he was a student of Gregory Kriegsmann.[5]

Pelesko taught at California Institute of Technology as an Instructor (1997 to 1999), at Georgia Institute of Technology as an Assistant Professor (1999 to 2002) before settling down at University of Delaware as an Assistant Professor (2002), and most recently as a Full Professor.[6][7]

Pelesko's mathematical interests include the development and application of mathematical methods to problems arising in the microwave heating of ceramics, electron beam welding, diffusion in polymers, solidification thermomechanics, thermoelastic stability and shock dynamics. Currently, his research is focused upon the mathematical modeling of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). In addition to his area of focus, he has interests and contributions in other areas, including integer sequences, tiling problems, and physics education.

Pelesko in one of the two professors that were involved in the MEC Lab [1] at the University of Delaware, a lab for running physical experiments and computations related to applied mathematics.
