About
I hold a PhD in Chemical Engineering. I am an Assistant Researcher at PLAPIQUI (UNS–CONICET) and a Teaching Assistant in the Chemical Engineering Department at Universidad Nacional del Sur, in Bahía Blanca, Argentina.
My work sits between particle technology, droplet physics, and the software both of them need.
Research
- Droplet evaporation and cooling — coupled heat and mass transfer for water droplets in air, comparing Wilson, Abramzon–Sirignano and classical D²-law formulations under adaptive ODE solvers with event detection.
- Agricultural spray drift — atomization, transport, evaporation and deposition, assembled as a literature knowledge base in which every implemented model stays traceable to the equations in its source paper.
- Population balance methods — independently resolving aggregated, broken, coated/attritioned and newborn particles, with solvers across Fortran, Julia and Python.
- Particle size distribution instrumentation — reading Horiba LA-950
.ngb(OLE/CFB) binaries into Dv10/Dv50/Dv90 metrics and reports. - Grain morphometry — sand-grain segmentation with MobileSAM/ONNX, then roundness and sphericity measurement.
Teaching
As a Teaching Assistant: undergraduate fluid mechanics and particulate solids processing, run through GitHub Classroom as solved exercises in notebooks, plus course tooling and a theory corpus for the Particle Engineering group.
