Biography
Dr. Roberto Moreno-Atanasio is currently a Senior Lecturer at the Chemical Engineering Department at the University of Newcastle, Australia. His main area of research involves the study of the behaviour of granular solids and powders in the presence and absence of fluid-solid interactions using Discrete Element Method (DEM) and the study of the behaviour of nanocolloidal suspensions. Dr. Moreno-Atanasio obtained his PhD in 2003 from the University of Surrey, UK and joined the Institute of Particle Science and Engineering at the University of Leeds as a postdoctoral researcher. The research work of Dr. Moreno-Atanasio has been previously sponsored by ICI, BNFL and the Engineering and Physical Research Council UK.
