The project aims at the implementation of a new model into C++-based DEM software to characterize viscoelastic materials and optimize industrial processes where such materials are involved. The main tasks are: • Software development to implement new model in Linux environment • Setting up DEM simulations for model testing • Post-processing of simulation data for model verification using Python • Calibrating the model parameters to reproduce fit experimental data and optimize industrial processes. • Presenting work in various international conferences and publishing scientific articles.

The project's main goal was to compare the boundary layer flow on a NACA airfoil with and without the presence of a plasma actuator (PA), by means of CFD simulations. The main tasks were: • Implementing Plasma Actuator force field into in-house CFD software, written in FORTRAN90. • Setting up CFD simulations of NACA profiles with and without Plasma Actuator. • Post-processing of simulation data to compare boundary layer quantities and quantify benefits of PA.

As a Formula Student undergraduate team member, my goal was the dimensioning and optimization of the cooling system for the ICE of the racing car. The main tasks were: • Performing CFD analysis of water-air heat exchanger • Implementing a tool in Matlab to evaluate the minimum dimensions of the heat exchanger • Testing of cooling system equipment As a Formula Student undergraduate team member, my goal was the dimensioning and optimization of the cooling system for the ICE of the racing car.
