Dr. rer. nat. Fernando Alonso-Marroquín

 
              

I enjoy working in numerical simulations, but try not to let my mind replaced by the CPU of the computer. This is why I prefer analytical calculations.

I completed my PhD in Computational Physics at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. I have held several positions at the National Technical University of Athens, Greece; The University of Queensland, Australia; ETH Zurich in Switzerland; and The University of Sydney, Australia. Currently, I am a Research Scientist of the Centre for Integrative Petroleum Research (CIPR) at the King Fahd University of Petroleum Research, Saudi Arabia.

My research focuses on modeling the large-scale behavior of complex systems by examining the small-scale interactions of their components. I use theoretical frameworks to formulate the governing equations of these systems, and numerical analysis to explore the emerging patterns of behavior resulting from microscopic interactions. The main goal is to identify the key conditions of synergy that allow these systems to self-organize and operate more efficiently than when acting as independent entities.

I have employed tailored coarse-grained techniques to investigate the optimization of key processes in granular materials, pedestrian flow, stock markets, nanotechnology systems, and sustainable buildings. At CIPR, I focus on developing methods to extract material properties from CT scans of geological materials. The new computational techniques combine tools from image processing, mathematical morphology, and graph theory.
