Dr. Panter's research centers on fundamental interfacial and wetting phenomena, with a strong emphasis on computational modeling. He develops and applies phase-field models, the Binary Image Transition State Search (BITSS) algorithm, and the Lattice Boltzmann method to study fluid equilibria, transitions, and dynamics. His work extends into soft matter, including elastic buckling, bio-elasticity, and colloidal organization. Applications include optimizing super-liquid-repellent surfaces with Procter & Gamble and simulating capillary rise for carbon capture technologies with ExxonMobil.
His recent publications focus on thermal management of lithium-ion batteries using phase-change materials, hybrid immersion cooling strategies for electric vehicles, and computational simulations of wetting and capillary phenomena. These works reflect a strong trend toward sustainable engineering solutions, energy efficiency, and advanced computational fluid dynamics.
