安德里亚·蒙特梭利，Andrea Montessori, PhD, is a Postdoc researcher in the Department of Engineering at the University of Rome 'Roma Tre' in Italy. He obtained his PhD (cum laude) in Engineering in 2017 from the University of Rome 'Roma Tre' with the thesis 'Lattice Boltzmann approach to complex fluid phenomena across scales'. He has developed the Lattice Boltzmann Model for the simulation of complex fluid dynamics phenomena, including multiphase and multicomponent flows, reactive and nonequilibrium flows, and transport phenomena in 2D nanomaterials. He is involved in the IMASC project as a collaborator and was a visiting scholar at Harvard University in 2015. He has published more than 20 papers on Lattice Boltzmann models for fluid dynamics phenomena across scales of motion.
