معرفی
Michal Pavelka is an Associate Professor at the Division of Mathematical Modeling, Mathematical Institute, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. His career spans roles from Postdoc (part time) at the Institute of Chemical Technology to positions at École Polytechnique de Montréal and New Technologies Research Centre. He earned his Ph.D. in 2015 and M.Sc. in 2012 at Charles University under František Maršík.
Michal Pavelka's research integrates Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics, Geometric Mechanics, and Machine Learning. His work bridges advanced mathematical frameworks like GENERIC and Extended Irreversible Thermodynamics with practical applications in electrochemical systems (fuel cells, batteries) and quantum fluids. Notably, he has contributed to Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics and Hamiltonian mechanics in complex systems.
His recent publications focus on Multiscale Thermodynamics, Superfluid Modeling, and Machine Learning in Physics. Scientific awards include the Best paper award, Entropy (2021) and Czech Grant Agency President's award (2020). He has secured significant grants, including a €363k Czech Grant Agency award (2023–2025) for geometric multiscale thermodynamics of complex fluids.
Scientific Awards:
- Best paper award, Entropy (2021)
- Czech Grant Agency President's award (2020)
- High quality monographs of Charles University competition (1st-3rd place, 2020)
Current Projects: He leads research on geometric multiscale thermodynamics and co-supervises projects on zinc-air batteries and solid oxide fuel cells. His lab develops the SmoothedParticles.jl Julia package for fluid dynamics simulations.
