New theoretical constructs for large eddy simulation (LES) sub-grid scale models allowing modeling shock-turbulence-chemistry interactions in rotating detonation engines
Goal: Both to increase fuel efficiency and to reduce operating costs and pollutant emissions, continuous design improvements in combustion systems need to be introduced. Conventional propulsion systems utilized nowadays mostly rely...

Design, build and test of a high-efficiency electrolytic hydrogen production plant using solar radiation as energy source for the production of clean energy
Goal: Both the expected increase in energy demand and the rising public interest in environmental issues continuously highlight the need for improved energy production methods. Because of new developments in energy...

Identification of soot precursors in turbulent combustion processes through numerical modeling to reduce the impact of soot on both health and environment
Goal: More than 80% of the energy used by humanity comes from combustion processes, which are present in several industries including mining, chemical, steel, cement, glass and transportation. In some large...

Determination of mineral pulps concentrations that reduce the energy consumption in ore grinding processes of concentrator plants through numerical modeling and experimental tests
Goal: Energy consumption in mineral concentrator plants represents about 60 to 80% of their operating costs, and 30% of the sale price of the mineral concentrate. The main goal of this...
