Cum Laude-Extraordinary Award.Title: Interaction of planar shock waves with non uniform flows

2007–2009 M.Sc. in Physics, Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia, Facultad de Ciencias Físicas, GPA-10.0.Specialization: Fluid Mechanics

2002–2007 Mechanical Engineer, University of Castilla-La Mancha, E.T.S.I. Industriales, Five years program.Specialization: Energetic Techniques

Ph.D. ThesisTitle Interaction of planar shock waves with non uniform flows

Supervisor Professor Dr. J. Gustavo Wouchuk SchmidtDescription The thesis analytically investigates the interaction of planar shock waves with weak-amplitude isotropic

nonuniform flows. The modification of the turbulent kinetic energy by the shock passage is obtained withexact and closed-form formulae in very strong and weak shock limits.
