Hello, I’m Alex! I conduct bespoke, one-of-a-kind experiments in custom-tailored hardware or software related to technical systems that range from nano and microscale, e.g., investigation of wall slip or cloud cavitation, to macroscale, e.g., algorithmic planning of fluid systems. I work with experimental setups that are not only bespoke, but also reconfigurable, i.e., can change over time and are often operated by multiple (generations) of scientists. On one hand, my interest is the FAIR analysis of physical phenomena; on the other, it is the FAIR synthesis in systems design and operation. My research fields include process engineering, including physio-chemical processes, mechanical engineering, control engineering, thermo- and fluid dynamics, energy systems and systems engineering.
