Serdar Selamet
Adjunct Lecturer, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioProf. Serdar Selamet is an Adjunct Lecturer in Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University and a Manager in Thermal Sciences at Exponent. Before joining Stanford, he served as an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at Bogazici University in Istanbul, Turkey. His work focuses on structural fire engineering, wildfire engineering, steel structures, performance-based design, computational modeling, and multi-hazard resilience.
Dr. Selamet specializes in evaluating the behavior of buildings and infrastructure under fire conditions. His expertise includes heat-transfer and thermomechanical analysis, structural stability and critical-temperature assessment, passive fire protection, façade and cladding fires, compartment-fire dynamics, and the fire performance of steel and composite structures. He has led performance-based fire-engineering projects involving high-rise buildings, airports, industrial facilities, and structures containing hazardous materials.
As a licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) and Certified Fire and Explosion Investigator (CFEI), Dr. Selamet conducts origin-and-cause investigations involving residential and commercial fires, explosions, and hazardous materials. His consulting experience also includes failure analysis of sprinklers, fire-rated assemblies, firestopping systems, and building façades. In wildfire engineering, he develops predictive models for vegetation ignition and assesses risks to infrastructure in the wildland–urban interface.
His computational expertise includes finite-element and thermomechanical modeling using Abaqus, OpenSees Fire, and SAFIR, as well as fire and smoke modeling using computational fluid dynamics and zone models such as OZone and CFAST. Dr. Selamet is an Editorial Board Member of Fire Safety Journal, co-leads the SFPE WUI Fire Research Work Group, and serves on several professional fire-protection and structural-engineering committees. -
Kirsten Stasio
Adjunct Lecturer, Atmosphere and Energy
BioKirsten Stasio is CEO of the Nevada Clean Energy Fund (NCEF), Nevada's nonprofit green bank. She also serves as an Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, where she co-teaches Understand Energy, a course that gives students the knowledge and tools to engage in the energy and sustainability sectors.
Throughout her career, Kirsten has strived to translate her life-long passion for environmental sustainability into real impact across the policy, education, corporate, and investment sectors. Before joining NCEF, Kirsten worked at MAP Energy, an energy investment firm, where she helped scale investments in renewable energy across the US. Her early career began at the World Resources Institute (WRI), a non-profit, where she worked with policymakers and other stakeholders to implement climate finance solutions. While getting her graduate degree at Stanford, Kirsten worked at Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) where she helped launched a new energy efficiency initiative with large businesses in the Bay Area. Kirsten also worked at Apple to implement energy measures at Apple's headquarters, retail stores, and data centers.
Kirsten began teaching at Stanford in early 2015 after graduating from Stanford with an MBA and an MS degree in the Emmet-Interdisciplinary Program on Environment and Resources (E-IPER). Kirsten also earned a dual BA in International Relations and French from the University of California, Davis.
The origins of Kirsten's passion for sustainability trace back to her childhood when she spent time on her family’s fourth-generation ranch in the Sierra Nevada foothills, a place where she enjoys spending time today with her husband and daughter.
