My interests are
broadly in energy and environmental systems, with specific interests
in: modeling and evaluation of
advanced energy conversion (e.g.,combustion,
gasification) and environmental control systems; measurement and modeling
of real-world fuel use and emissions of onroad
and nonroad vehicles; development and application
of methods for quantification of variability and uncertainty and for
sensitivity analysis in systems models; and exposure and risk
analysis. Air pollutant emissions of
interest include criteria pollutants, hazardous air pollutants (“air
toxics”), particulate matter, and greenhouse gases. More details on my teaching, current and past
research activities, publications, professional advisory
activities, research
group, and computer
laboratory are available in the links above.

Dr.
Frey and recent Ph.D. graduate Po-Yao Kuo have completed an assessment of avoided fuel use
and emissions for anti-idling methods for long-haul freight trucks, in
collaboration with the NC Solar Center and Volvo Technology of North
America. This assessment is based on
real world data from 20 instrumented trucks. See the November 6, 2008 press release, a video, and access the project final report. See also a recent presentation.
