We are glad to welcome our SFB 1313 guest Dr. Andreas Yiotis, associate professor at the School of Mineral Resources Engineering of the Technical University of Crete (Greece). He will stay at the Institute of Applied Mechanics (CE) of the University of Stuttgart from 7 October 2024 to 9 February 2025 for a research stay of five months.
About Andreas Yiotis
Dr. Andreas Yiotis is an Associate Professor in Fluid Mechanics and Petroleum Engineering at the School of Mineral Resources Engineering of the Technical University of Crete (TUC) in Chania, Greece. Prior to this, he was an Associate Researcher (2013-2019) at the National Center for Scientific Research ‘Demokritos’ (Athens, Greece) and a Marie Curie Fellow (2010-2012) at the French National Research Center- CNRS (Orsay, France). He holds a Bachelor (1997) and a PhD (2003) in Chemical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens. He has been an Invited Researcher at several International Research and Academic Centers, including CNRS (France), Utrecht University (Netherlands), Stuttgart University (Germany), University of Southern California (USA) and Herriot-Watt University (UK).
Prof. Yiotis’ research focuses on the development and application of robust numerical modeling methodologies for a wide range of processes of environmental and technological relevance (i.e. oil recovery, soil remediation, H2 storage and fuel cells). He has significant experience in the wider field of modelling transport processes in several classes of permeable materials (soils, membranes and fibrous media), including immiscible flows, evaporative drying, hydrodynamic dispersion, heat and mass transfer. He has published over 45 papers in high-impact peer-review journals (h-index=18 with more than 1300 hetero-citations) and authored 2 books in Fluid Mechanics and Petroleum Engineering, while also participating in numerous European and National Research Projects.
During his stay, he will give a SFB 1313 lecture. More information will follow soon.
