2018 - Fellow of the Combustion Institute for innovative developments of complex diagnostics in internal combustion engines

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Volker Sick is best known for:

  • Internal combustion engine
  • Gasoline
  • Laser

Organic chemistry is closely attributed to Decomposition in his study. His Organic chemistry research extends to the thematically linked field of Decomposition. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Equivalence ratio and Combustion. His research on Equivalence ratio frequently links to adjacent areas such as Combustor. Volker Sick regularly links together related areas like Combustion in his Combustor studies. As part of his studies on Mechanics, he often connects relevant subjects like Proper orthogonal decomposition. His Proper orthogonal decomposition study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Turbulence. By researching both Turbulence and Particle image velocimetry, he produces research that crosses academic boundaries. Many of his studies on Particle image velocimetry apply to Thermodynamics as well.

His most cited work include:

  • Measurement of temperature, fuel concentration and equivalence ratio fields using tracer LIF in IC engine combustion (157 citations)
  • Temperature and pressure dependences of the laser-induced fluorescence of gas-phase acetone and 3-pentanone (140 citations)
  • A practical guide for using proper orthogonal decomposition in engine research (121 citations)
