Lauren Creadore is a PhD candidate in the Combustion & Catalysis Laboratory, where her research focuses on combustion, chemical kinetics, and the thermal decomposition of polymeric fuels. Her doctoral work investigates polybutadiene pyrolysis through experimental analysis and semi-detailed kinetic modeling, with applications in high-speed combustion, polymer decomposition, and practical fuel systems. Lauren previously completed her master’s research in CCL on combustion and emissions from alternative fuels and waste-derived energy systems. She also conducted collaborative research with the CRECK Modeling Group at Politecnico di Milano, where she used OpenSMOKE++ to model polymer decomposition. Lauren earned her bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Stanford University.
