FCST Developers

The current group of FCST developers is formed by:

  • M. Secanell, Associate Professor, Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Responsible for overall framework (base class concepts), optimization interface, electronic, protonic, membrane water transport, Fick's gas transport and kinetics.

  • A. Putz, Senior Research Scientist, Automotive Fuel Cell Cooperation Corp.
    • Responsible for plug-points and AFCC contributions.

  • V. Zingan, Post-doctoral Fellow, Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Responsible for overall framework (base class concepts), Navier-Stokes, Darcy and multi-component fluid flow physical models and applications.

  • M. Moore, M.Sc. graduate from the Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Responsible for fcst_install script, double-trap kinetics model for ORR reaction and multi-scale framework (1D agglomerate models).

  • M. Bhaiya, M.Sc. Student, Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Responsible for overall framework (base class concepts) and thermal physical models and applications.

  • P. Wardlaw, M.Sc. Student, Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Responsible for fcst_install script and multi-scale framework (1D agglomerate models).

  • K. Domican, M.Sc. Student, Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Responsible for optimization interface and documentation.

Other scientists that have also contributed substantial portions of code to FCST are:

  • P. Dobson, M.Sc. graduate from the Energy Systems Design Laboratory, University of Alberta, Canada.
    • Developed parts of overall framework (base class concepts), optimization interface and multi-scale framework (1D agglomerate models).

  • G. Kanschat, Universitat Heidelberg.
    • Developer of AppFrame (now part of deal.II as MeshWorker class).

  • A. Malekpourkoupaei, former M.Sc. graduate student at the Energy Systems Design Laboratory.
    • Developed classes PureGas and classes to compute binary diffusivity (together with M. Secanell).

  • J. Boisvert and R. Spiteri, University of Saskatchewan.
    • Developed Newton3pp and Newton3ppC nonlinear solvers
    • Developed DAESolver and DAEwrapper. These classes are used as wrapper classes to COLDAE.
