Virtual Chemistry

Publications

Peer-reviewed research behind the method, the models, and the schemes.

Behind every virtual scheme is a chain of published work: the formulation of the method, the optimization strategy and the comparison to reference flame data that define where each mechanism can be trusted.

This bibliography is synchronized from HAL and updated with the lab’s research output. Each scheme page points directly to the publications most relevant to that mechanism.
