Farid F. Abraham

Farid F. Abraham is an American scientist.

Abraham earned his Bachelor of Science and Ph.D from the University of Arizona in 1959 and 1962, respectively. By pioneering new methods of using computer modelling in research, he has made seminal contributions to science in the fields of fracture mechanics, membrane dynamics and phase transformation behavior of matter. He has authored three textbooks and over 200 papers published in international journals, including three cover articles in "Science".
