Augustin Guibaud

Augustin Guibaud is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at New York University, affiliated with the Center for Urban Science + Progress. His research focuses on hazards through physics-based modeling and physics-informed machine learning, with an emphasis on fire safety challenges in complex environments. He leads the IgNYte Lab, which investigates urban air quality monitoring, fire dynamics, heritage conservation, and city-scale fire modeling. Dr. Guibaud is an active member of several academic and research groups and serves as an Honorary Lecturer at University College London. His work bridges practical applications with fundamental analyses, contributing to advancements in fire safety, urban planning, and environmental science.

Augustin Guibaud is a researcher in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at NYU Tandon School of Engineering, focusing on Combustion, Fire, and Physics-informed machine learning. His work explores flame behavior in microgravity and partial gravity environments, particularly in the context of spacecraft fire safety. Guibaud investigates flame spread over electric wire insulation, soot production, radiative heat transfer, and the impact of flame retardants and oxygen depletion on combustion processes. His research also includes experimental and numerical studies on fire safety modeling for historic buildings and battery thermal runaway. Guibaud's work emphasizes the integration of physics-informed machine learning to enhance predictive models for fire dynamics.
