His research was mentored by Dr. E. A. Eichebrenner, who previously was a student of the legendary professor I. Flügge-Lotz at Stanford University.
After several years of teaching and research in mechanical engineering, Dr. Shanebrook wrote several books. These focused on energy issues such as nuclear technology. These included the following:
1.) Nuclear War I and Other Major Nuclear Disasters of the 20th Century, AuthorHouse, 2007
2.) The History of Nuclear War I, AuthorHouse, 2013
During his engineering career, the author published over ninety technical papers and invented or co-invented several biomedical engineering devices, including prosthetic heart valves and the Vortex Blood Pump. He has been an invited lecturer at many colleges and universities, including the United States military academies at West Point and Annapolis.
His publications include measures to halt the horizontal and vertical proliferation of nuclear weapons and a proposal for an international treaty to protect nuclear facilities from acts of war.показать меньше
