Dr. Stephan Simonis is a Research Fellow at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), working within the Department of Mathematics and specifically with the Institute for Applied and Numerical Mathematics (IANM2). He leads the LBRG Mathematical Modeling and Numerics Lab since 2023 and serves as an associate editor for the Elsevier journal Examples and Counterexamples since 2024. He is also a member of the steering committee for the EU-funded FALCON project (doi: 10.3030/101138305). Dr. Simonis completed his education as follows: BSc and MSc in Mathematics at KIT, Germany and KTH, Sweden (2011-2018) PhD in Mathematics at KIT (2023), with research visits at UFRGS, Brazil and ETH Zürich, Switzerland Dr. Simonis's research focuses on Applied and Computational Mathematics, particularly in developing and analyzing numerical methods for partial differential equations. His work centers on lattice Boltzmann methods for multi-physics simulations, including applications to fluid flow, blood flow, and solid mechanics. He integrates robust numerical schemes with uncertainty quantification and machine learning, leveraging high-performance computing to explore complex parameter spaces. His research has significant applications in engineering and scientific computing. His publication record demonstrates a strong focus on numerical analysis of lattice Boltzmann methods, with recent work expanding into uncertainty quantification, machine learning integration, and applications to complex fluid dynamics problems. The breadth of his work spans theoretical analysis, algorithm development, and practical implementation in the OpenLB library, with publications in top journals across mathematics, physics, and engineering disciplines. Dr. Simonis has received numerous accolades for his work: ERASMUS+ EQF7 scholarship (2016-2017) DAAD PPP mobility funding (2019) KIT Faculty Teaching Award (2021) KHYS Networking Grant (2022) KHYS ConYS Grant (2024) Oberwolfach Leibniz Graduate Student (2024) NHR Starter project (2024) DAAD PRIME fellowship (2025) Dr. Simonis actively mentors students through various thesis projects in mathematics, fluid dynamics, and high-performance computing. His current open thesis topics focus on lattice Boltzmann methods, relaxation schemes, and stability analysis. He has secured significant research funding including the DAAD PRIME fellowship and NHR Starter project, demonstrating strong support for his research program. His teaching portfolio includes Computational Fluid Dynamics and Simulation Lab, Parallel Computing, and Project-centered Software Lab across multiple semesters. As leader of the LBRG Mathematical Modeling and Numerics Lab since 2023, Dr. Simonis oversees a research group focused on developing advanced numerical methods. His involvement in the EU-funded FALCON project and as associate editor for Examples and Counterexamples further demonstrates his growing leadership in the computational mathematics community.
