SAE International extends its heartfelt thanks to Tom Ryan for his dedicated work
as Editor-in-Chief of the SAE International Journal of Engines
from 2008 to 2025. His vision for SAE allowed and encouraged the establishment
of our journals program in 2008. As the SAE president that year, he saw the
launch of our first journals, assuming the leadership for this journal, as well
as establishing the beginning of our other journals. His dedication has helped
to establish the journal as an impactful venue for academics and industry
researchers alike.
Dr. Ryan has been the leading force behind the SAE International Journal
of Engines since its inception and is now retiring at the end of
2025 after an impressive tenure with the journal. Because of his instrumental
policies and practices, Dr. Ryan will be listed on the journal as Founding
Editor in perpetuity. We offer our thanks and great respect for his efforts,
dedication, and leadership throughout the years.
Dr. Ryan has been working closely over the past year with Dr. Gabriele Di Blasio,
our new Editor-in-Chief, who will be leading our journal into the future.
