Laboratory for Simulation and Modelling (LSM)

The PSI Laboratory for Simulation and Modelling develops numerical and computational capabilities for advanced nuclear systems, advanced particle accelerators, reacting and non-reacting fluid dynamics.

The topical areas of the Laboratory for Simulation and Modelling covers a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines such as

Dr. Ioannis (John) Mantzaras

Fellow Award for Dr. Mantzaras

The prestigious Fellow Award “Fellow of The Combustion Institute” was allotted to Dr. Mantzaras for “Pioneering Experimental and Modeling Research in Hetero-/Homogeneous and Catalytic Combustion”. The combustion activities at LSM emphasize on non-intrusive laser-based measurements in a high-pressure optically accessible catalytic reactor, while the modeling activities encompass advanced multidimensional numerical simulations and theoretical work based on activation energy asymptotics.
