所在团队情况Team situation:
Dr. Diop's research program is tightly coordinated with the Industrial Research team called Institute of Light Metal Metallurgy (ILMM). While the ILMM team will focus on the global behavior of the Halt-Héroult cell. The team has already mastered the start-up modelling. Projects are currently undertaken on chemical species migration in the cathode, which will lead to degradation models (in the long term). In order to further knowledge, the Chair’s research program has been divided in three sections. The first aims at furthering knowledge regarding modelling of complex phenomena and their numerical implementation. he second section aims for an experimental support to further knowledge regarding thermo-electro-mechanical behavior of the cell. Finally, the third section aims for targeted projects where the thermo-electro-mechanical behavior of the cell will be tackled in order to improve the energy efficiency of current cells. | ||||||
人才培养情况Talent training:
In this aspect, Dr. Diop's contributions are excellent because of his academic background and technical experience from the industry. Also, we must mention that the students of his research group are very motivated and of a very high potential to carry out quality research. Subsequently, several measures are put in place to promote the integration and collaboration of students within a multi-disciplinary group of an international character. We note, in particular, industrial visits and internships. During the last six years, 1 Post-doc, 6 Ph.D. and 14 master students have been under the direction or co-direction of the applicant. All of these students currently hold academic or industrial engineering positions. Let’s note that several students are pursuing their careers in fields related to the aluminum industry. The above description shows that students have acquired skills that are sought after by the industry.
In summary, the work of Dr. Diop to real science, engineering, and industrial needs and is under the leadership of a very competent, recognized, and productive researcher who contributes significantly to the training of Highly Qualified Personnel, particularly at the masters and doctorate level. | ||||||
