  • Supercritical reaction dynamics; Ab initio modelling of physicochemical processes. 

Supercritical fluids ought to provide an agreeable environment for the study of many physicochemical processes as their state properties show no sudden change. However, alone thermophysical property studies of such fluids remain shrouded in complexity. My research aims at simplified description of supercritical fluids based on thermophysical properties as well as incorporating their ab initio modelling.
