GENERAL
Biography
His research has focused on understanding the flow mechanism of magnetic nanoparticle suspensions (ferrofluids) induced by time-varying magnetic fields. To this end, both analytical and numerical solutions of the flow field have been obtained for different geometries, complemented by the evaluation of velocity profiles. Additionally, his work includes the magnetorheological characterization of ferrofluids and magnetic emulsions, as well as the electrorheological evaluation of light and heavy crude oils.
