Dr. Jeffrey Moore is an Institute Engineer in the Machinery Department at Southwest Research Institute® (SwRI®) in San Antonio, TX. He holds a B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Texas A&M University. His professional experience over the last 30 years includes engineering and management responsibilities related to centrifugal compressors and gas turbines at Solar Turbines Inc. in San Diego, CA, Dresser‐Rand in Olean, NY, and SwRI in San Antonio, TX. His interests include advanced power cycles and compression methods, rotordynamics, seals and bearings, computational fluid dynamics, finite element analysis, machine design, controls, aerodynamics, and oxy‐combustion. He has authored over 40 technical papers related to turbomachinery, co‐authored four book chapters related to compression, sCO2 power cycles, energy storage, and hydrogen machinery, and has four patents issued. Dr. Moore has held positions as the Vanguard Chair of the Structures and Dynamics Committee and Chair of Oil and Gas Committee for IGTI Turbo Expo. He has also served as the Associate Editor for the Journal of Tribology and a member of the IGTI SCO2 Committee, Turbomachinery Symposium Advisory Committee, the IFToMM International Rotordynamics Conference Committee, and the API 616 and 684 Task Forces.

Mr. White is a Sr. Research Engineer in the Propulsion and Energy Machinery section at Southwest Research Institute and is interested in product development, process improvement, mechanical design, and prototype testing. He joined SwRI in November 2016 and specializes in mechanical design and testing.
In his previous work, Mr. White was the lead engineer on multiple projects dealing with product line expansion as well as product packaging. He has been a member of many different multidisciplinary engineering teams, as well as managing a team of engineers.
Mr. White has experience with mechanical design, rotordynamics, hardware and instrumentation specifications for test stands, as well as operating hardware test stands. He also has significant experience in computer-aided design (CAD) doing advanced surfacing in PTC Creo and product modeling in SOLIDWORKS®. He has experience with ANSYS® Workbench™ and APDL on various projects in order to conduct stress analysis and thermal/fluid simulations.
His recent project experience includes design, analysis, and testing of rotating detonation engine (RDE) hardware, a 1MW oxy combustion loop in sCO2, lighter-than-air airship hardware, launch vehicle test stand, and a clean-sheet compressor design. 

Dr. Tim Allison is the Machinery Department Director at Southwest Research Institute® where he leads an organization that focuses on R&D for the energy industry. His research experience includes analysis, fabrication, and testing of turbomachinery and systems for advanced power or oil & gas applications including high-pressure turbomachinery, centrifugal compressors, expanders, gas turbines, reciprocating compressors, and test rigs for bearings, seals, blade dynamics, and aerodynamic performance. Dr. Allison holds two patents, has authored four book chapters and co-edited two books, and has published over 79 articles on various turbomachinery topics. He received the best tutorial/paper awards from the ASME Oil & Gas and Supercritical CO2 Power Cycle Committees in 2010, 2014, 2015, and 2018. He is a past chairman of the ASME Oil & Gas Applications Committee, past and current co-chair for the Thermal-Chemical-Mechanical Energy Storage Workshop, a member of the Supercritical CO2 Symposium Planning Committee, and an Associate Editor for the ASME Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines & Power.
