Smith III, with co-authors Amanda Weaver, Lily Parker, and Cesar Carapia of the Paulson College of Engineering and Computing at Georgia Southern. .
The title of the students’ work is “Analysis of Low-temperature combustion Regions of Aerospace Fuel Blends in a Constant Volume Combustion Chamber: the New Climate Change Mitigation Technology.” These students work with faculty mentor Dr. Valentin Soloiu, Allen E. Paulson Chair of Renewable Energy in the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
The students competed against students from UC Berkeley, UT Arlington, U of Kansas, Texas Tech, Stony Brook University, Case Western Reserve, U of Massachusetts, and NYU.
