Virgilio Gomez Jr.

Quality Aspirators

Areas: Biomedical Research, Image Processing, Mechanical Engineering

Virgilio Gomez Jr. is a mechanical engineer who frequently uses Mathematica for research and development. As a graduate student, he used Mathematica to implement closed-form solutions for three-dimensional vibrations of elastic bodies. In his time as a research development mechanical engineer at Quality Aspirators, he has used Wolfram Language image processing in several projects, most recently for quantifying the aerosol spray generated during a certain dental procedure. This work aided in the design and testing of Safety Suction, a device for removing blood- and bacteria-carrying particles from the air to create a more hygienic environment, helping reduce the spread of COVID-19.
