  2. Theoretical metallurgy:
    • application of equilibrium and statistical thermodynamics,
    • evaluation of thermodynamics properties of metallic alloys, intermetalic compounds and slags,
    • kinetics of high temperature metallurgical chemical processes.
  3. Heat and mass transfer analysis:
    • mathematical modelling heat and mass transfer processes in liquid metals and alloys,
    • mathematical modelling and experimental research of turbulent fluid flows,
    • modelling of transport phenomena in crystal growth,
    • mathematical modelling of solidification processes of liquid metals and alloys (macro and micro models of heat and mass transfer),
    • mathematical modelling and computer simulation of metallurgical processes (blast furnaces, flash smelting processes, aluminium electrolysis cells),
    • energy and exergy analysis of the metallurgical processes; auditing of energy systems.
    • application of least square method in non-linear thermodynamic problems.
  4. Energy management and economy in metallurgy:
