"Ars longa, vita brevis, occasio praeceps, experimentum periculosum, iudicium difficile" ( Hippocrates) Well, I should start my home page with some introduction. I am a researcher, that simply means that I learn and study new things trying to invent something new and helpfull. Someone thinks research is a hope or a hobby, for someone else it simply is a business. For me research is at least all the three things together. This web page tells about my work as a researcher. Probably, later I will add some info about my hobbies including photography. RESEARCH INTERESTS: - Computational Fluid dynamics. - Applied mathematics and numerical methods. Numerical solution of partial differential equations. - Numerical modeling of complex dynamical systems. - Programming and computer graphics. - Bifurcations, chaos, hydrodynamics. - Modeling of satellite's motion, vibrations. PROJECTS: - Thermocapillary convection (liquid bridge, floating zone) - See animation of m=0+1 wave for Re=1200, Gamma=1.8 and Biot=0 - See animation of m=0+1 wave for Re=1155, Gamma=1.8 and Biot=0 - See experimental movie on formation of PAS in liquid bridge - See animation of formation of PAS in liquid bridge (modelling of the experiment) - Thermo-vibrational convection - Thermodiffusion see a page about it - Spectral analysis of data CARRICULUM VITAE via link PUBLICATIONS via link : I have published 34 papers in reviewed journals, and 5 reports. You can download most of them on my publications page.
