Chemical Engineering – UCL
Marcello Sega earned his PhD in Physics from the University of Trento. Following this, he was awarded a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship. He then went on to be appointed Team Head at the Helmholtz-Institute Erlangen Nürnberg in Germany, before working as an Associate Professor in Molecular Thermodynamics at the Department of Chemical Engineering at UCL. His research focuses on computer simulations of fluids, where he develops and employs advanced simulation techniques at both atomic and mesoscopic scales. His approaches include molecular dynamics, lattice-Boltzmann methods, computational geometry for characterizing interfacial properties, and machine learning techniques to derive ab initio grade classical potentials.
