Hernán Domingo

From April 7^th to 10^th, our PhD student Hernán Domingo, had the opportunity to attend the 51^st IOP Annual Plasma Physics Conference, held at the Institute of Physics headquarters in London. The event brought together experts and researchers from all over the UK and beyond to share the latest developments in plasma physics and fusion research.

During the conference, Hernán presented our work on “Alya4fusion: A Digital Twin framework for nuclear fusion reactors”, a project led by our group. Alya4fusion is an ambitious initiative aiming to become the first unified multiphysics, fully coupled simulation framework for fusion reactors, designed to run on high-performance computing (HPC) systems.

On November 21^st and 22^nd, our team members Pau Manyer and Hernán Domingo had the pleasure of attending the 5^th Fusion HPC Workshop, each giving a contributed talk to share their work.

This year, the workshop featured over 30 talks on computer applications using High-Performance Computing (HPC) in the field of fusion research, and more than 320 participants from 44 countries following the online event.

On September 20^th, a member of our Fusion Group, Hernán Domingo Ramos, successfully defended his Master’s Thesis. His work on numerical simulations of electromagnetic (EM) waves using the finite element method (FEM) in plasma environments, was presented to the steering committee of the European Master of Science in Nuclear Fusion and Engineering Physics, which awarded him with the mention Très Bien, equivalent to outstanding distinctions.

On the 7th and 8th of May, the members of the group Pau Manyer and Hernán Domingo participated in the 11th International BSC Severo Ochoa Doctoral Symposium 2024, presenting their recent work within the framework of their Master’s Thesis projects. In this event, MSc and PhD students and early postdoctoral scientists have an opportunity to gather together and communicate their research projects to the audience, either in the form of oral or poster presentations. In this edition, more than 40 participants from diverse backgrounds could disseminate their research topics and achievements.
