National Polytechnic Institut, Mexico
PhD in Advanced Technology with the thesis entitled “Analysis of Heat Transfer using the Hot Wire technique and COMSOL Multiphysics”, by the Center for Research in Applied Science and Advanced Technology, National Polytechnic Institute (Mexico). He completed a research stay at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, where he performed research on the modeling and simulation of mass transport in microchannels with COMSOL Multiphysics. He has also received specialized training on COMSOL Multiphysics, by the software developers themselves, at the U.S. headquarters in Los Angeles (California) and Burlington (Massachusetts).
Teaching
In addition to the usual graduate academic courses that he gives as a member of the National Polytechnic Institute (Mexico), Joel Hernández Wong has taught five master’s courses, one doctoral course, and has directed four doctoral theses, all of them with specific topics on the use of COMSOL Multiphysics software.
Research
Throughout his research career, he has published several scientific papers using COMSOL Multiphysics software intensively, such as:
- Heat transfer monitoring by means of the hot wire technique and finite element analysis software.
- Study of the heat transfer in solids using infrared photothermal radiometry and simulation by COMSOL Multiphysics.
- Thermoacoustic and thermoreflectance imaging of biased integrated circuits: voltage and temperature maps.
- Axisymmetric modelling of transient thermal response in solids for application to infrared photothermal radiometry technique.
- Phase Resolved Method using the Hill-Climbing Metaheuristic Algorithm applied for the spectral separation from Photoacoustic Spectra of chilli pepper skin and yellow corn pericarp.
Numerical Simulation and COMSOL Multiphysics
As can be seen from his teaching and research activities, the use of COMSOL Multiphysics and associated numerical methods is very intensive. He has taught several specialized postgraduate courses (master and PhD level) on this subject at the National Polytechnic Institute (Mexico). In addition, his research work includes the regular use of COMSOL Multiphysics software for the numerical simulation of the different phenomena analyzed in his publications.
