🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Vinny Gupta, assistant professor in Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering and director of our Fire Research Laboratory, on receiving the Silver Combustion Medal from The Combustion Institute — one of the most prestigious honours in combustion science, and a rare win for fire-related research.

🔥 Gupta and his international collaborators showed that chemically enhanced water mist suppresses large turbulent fires far more effectively than water alone, using high-speed laser diagnostics to capture what's happening inside the flame itself.
