Hi, I'm Sebastian Godoy-Gutiérrez, a Chemical Engineer (2018) and Dr. in Chemical Engineering (2023) specialized in molecular simulation.
🏫 I did my doctorate at the University of Concepción (Chile) with the CarboCat group exploring reaction mechanisms in heterogeneous catalysis with periodic-DFT calculations. After that, I worked with the NANO team (LCMCP, Sorbone Université, France) exploring phosphine ligand effects on Ni nanoparticles. Check my research here!
👩🏻💻 I code in python, sometimes matlab and Mathematica, and occasionally share it in GitHub (here). I use VASP for periodic-DFT DLPOLY and some GROMACS for MD, office/libreoffice and LaTeX for documents. I also enjoy graphic design in science working with krita (2D) and blender (3D, see the gallery) ... and natural photography as a hobby!
💻 Research interests : Molecular simulation (DFT, MD), Heterogeneous Catalysis, Cluster and Nanopartice configurations. Scientific code development.
📚 Preferred teaching areas : Process Dynamics and Control, Reactor design and Transport Phenomena, Heterogeneous Catalysis, Organic Chemistry, and Electronic structure and chemical reactivity.
🗂️ Current personal projects :
H2 interaction with Ni clean an covered surfaces and nanoparticles (manuscript)
StegoPlot: package for ab-initio molecular thermodynamics, analysis of DFT results, Densities of states and construct reaction energy plots (python module + LaTeX article, check repository here)
Webapp for the construction of surface slab models of different sizes/shapes and nanoparticle models of different structure and sizes.
3D modelling of chemical systems and laboratory equipment (artistic / pedagogic models).
And some more things here.
