Biography
Dr Martynov has received his BSc and MSc in Technical Physics from Moscow Power Engineering Institute, and after obtaining PhD in 2005 he has been involved in several research projects at the University of Brighton and Mechanical and Chemical Engineering Departments at UCL, where he was developing and applying mathematical models of fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, and fluid-structure interaction to improve the design, safety and efficiency of operation of complex systems, ranging from Diesel fuel injectors and carbon dioxide transmission pipelines to ultrasound contrast agent microbubbles.
