José D. Hoyos works on aerodynamics and aircraft design, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and optimization methods (such as particle swarm optimization) to improve the design of airfoils, propellers, and flying-wing aircraft, including electric aircraft efficiency. His work also touches on drone navigation, atmospheric pollution and particulate matter analysis, and remote sensing of environmental phenomena like wildfires.
