Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Dr. C. Franklin Goldsmith is an actively publishing faculty member at John Brown University whose research focuses on catalytic processes in materials science, advanced combustion engine technologies, and atmospheric chemistry. His work encompasses both experimental and theoretical approaches to understanding complex chemical systems. Goldsmith's work in chemical kinetics is reflected in publications concerning the Reaction Mechanism Generator (RMG), a software package used for automated generation of chemical kinetic mechanisms. These publications cover advancements to the software itself, the development of kinetic models for various combustion processes (including ammonia/methanol ignition), and the quantification of uncertainty in mechanism generation for reactions such as CO2 hydrogenation. His broader research interests include catalysis and oxidation reactions, advanced chemical physics studies, combustion and flame dynamics, and atmospheric aerosols.
