Robert Martin

Robert Martin's focus is on the simulation of compressible gas mixture flows including thermo- and baro- diffusion and continuum breakdown. He is particularly interested in development of hybrid continuum-DSMC simulations for reactive mixtures applied to combustion and plasma dynamics. He is currently seeking post-graduate employment opportunities in these areas. Specialties: Reseach interests include: Multi-component computational fluid dynamics with application to Inertial Fusion Energy chamber gas, combustion, rarefied shocks, and free expansion jets; Radiation Transport in Gasses; Hypersonic Mixing Layers; Non-Equilibrium Gas Dynamics; Direct Simulation Monte Carlo; Transport Properties; Effects of Thermo- and Baro- Diffusion
