Research Interest
Development of low-order network models to assess the stability of thermoacoustic systems. By using adjoint-based methods we extract information on how the resonant modes shift as soon as we change any of the parameters of the system. Taking this gradient information as an input for an optimization routine, we are able to find configurations which are linearly stable to infinitesimal perturbations.
