Title
Jorge Salinas is a Postdoctoral Appointee currently working at Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore, California, United States.
Current Position at Sandia National Laboratories
Since 2022, Jorge Salinas has been a Postdoctoral Appointee at Sandia National Laboratories. His work involves performing high-fidelity simulations of hypersonic flows with combustion of alternative fuels. He is engaged in developing highly accurate code for hypersonic flows with non-equilibrium thermo-chemistry as part of the Basic Energy Sciences project. Additionally, he integrates reacting flow solvers with in-situ analysis tools within the Exascale Computing Project and utilizes anomaly detection methods to characterize ignition processes in high-fidelity simulations of internal combustion engines.
Previous Experience at University of Florida
Jorge Salinas worked at the University of Florida as a Post Doctoral Associate from 2019 to 2021. Prior to that role, he served as a Research Assistant at the same institution from 2014 to 2018. During his tenure, he focused on computational and research projects related to fluid dynamics and combustion processes.
Research Assistant at Universidad Nacional de Cuyo
From 2012 to 2014, Jorge Salinas was a Research Assistant in the Department of Computational Mechanics at the Balseiro Institute, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo in Argentina. His work there laid the groundwork for his expertise in modeling and simulation of stratified flows with rotation effects.
Education and Expertise
Jorge Salinas earned his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from the University of Florida, where he studied from 2014 to 2019. His dissertation was titled 'Ambient fluid entrainment in turbidity currents.' Prior to his PhD, he received a Master of Science (MS) in 2014 from the Universidad Nacional de Cuyo with a thesis on 'Modeling and simulation of stratified flows with rotation effects.' He completed his Bachelor of Engineering (BE) at Universidad Nacional de Rosario between 2005 and 2010.
