Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEdward Smith is a Senior Lecturer and computational scientist specializing in multi-scale fluid mechanics, with a decade of experience bridging molecular dynamics and computational fluid dynamics. His PhD and subsequent research produced a unifying control-volume framework linking discrete MD stress to continuum CFD—work published in high-impact journals and awarded the Osborn Reynolds silver medal. He has built production-quality, parallel MD software and a portable, verified coupler library (CPL Library) that can link any MD and CFD codes and is available under GPLv3, forming the basis for several PhD projects. Comfortable in both theoretical derivations and scalable code (MPI/CUDA), he has extended CFD codes, developed plotting and batch tools, and presented at multiple international conferences. Based in London, he blends academic rigour with industry-relevant studies (including tribology) and a pragmatic focus on reproducible open-source tooling.
