I am mechanical engineer with a M.Sc in computational thermosciences and +15 years of experience in the use of numerical simulation to solve engineering problems. Specifically, problems associated to fluid flow and heat transfer in the petroleum industry. For example, reservoir simulation and multiphase flow in wells and pipelines. I am experienced in deterministic and probabilistic surrogate-based optimization of complex systems. This includes Design of Experiment, surrogate models, Global Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization Techniques. Also, I have experience writing in house codes in MATLAB and Fortran languages and solving problems with CFD software as ANSYS and OpenFoam.
