Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the pleasure of working with was a Postdoctoral Fellow in California in the field of Aerospace Engineering. His work is primarily focused on providing computational and mathematical models for explosions, particularly for multiphase explosions, which occur across more than one state of matter. His work had resulted in 16 peer-reviewed scientific articles and 17 conference papers. At the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 141 times by researchers around the world, serving as apparent and objective evidence of his major influence and impact on the field of endeavor, in addition to his sustained international acclaim. He had also conducted 29 manuscript reviews for 8 distinctive, internationally circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Explosions, particularly multiphase explosions, are large, powerful, and complex, and to understanding them fully requires sensitive and exact models and methodologies. EL-DEM is such a model, and thanks to [client]’s efforts, new research into multiphase explosions can be carried out. It is important to remember that multiphase explosions, along with all explosions, are a topic investigated at the international level, with scientists and researchers working in private and public institutions the world over.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Aerospace Engineering, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 8 months and 24 days.
