معرفی
Aslan Kasimov is an Associate Professor at Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech), where he directs the Master’s program in Applied Computational Mechanics and is affiliated with the Skoltech Project Center for Energy Transition. He has held academic positions at MIT, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), and Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
- Ph.D. in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2004)
- B.Sc. in Chemical Physics, Moscow Engineering-Physics Institute (1993)
Kasimov’s research focuses on theoretical and computational fluid dynamics, with a specialization in detonation waves and reacting flows. His work bridges fundamental fluid mechanics with practical applications in energy and combustion science.
His recent publications analyze combustion waves, detonations, and reacting systems, often employing numerical methods to model complex flows in energy-related contexts. Key trends include deflagration-to-detonation transition and oilfield multiphase flows.
Scientific Awards:
- US AFOSR Young Investigator Award (2007)
- Graduate awards at the University of Illinois
Kasimov has extensive teaching and advising experience, having mentored graduate and undergraduate students at MIT, KAUST, and Skoltech. Many of his students have pursued doctoral studies or postdoctoral work at top institutions globally.
