Joel Hernández Wong

Center for Research in Applied Science and Advanced Technology,

He holds a PhD in Advanced Technology from the National Polytechnic Institute in Mexico, focused on heat transfer analysis using the Hot Wire technique and COMSOL Multiphysics. He also conducted research at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia and received specialized COMSOL Multiphysics training in the United States.

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.
