Engineering Fluid Dynamics (EFD) research group

Crossing Scales and Bridging Disciplines: Connecting the fundamental Physics of Fluids to engineering and medical applications. Researching and solving fluid dynamics problems to develop knew knowledge and innovative technology and solutions for applications with scales ranging from nano-meters to many meters.  

Research Subjects

(Areo) Acoustics and Aerodynamics
Studies focusing on environmental acoustics, wind turbine aerodynamics, and aeroacoustic noise understanding and reduction.
More information
Biophysical Fluid Dynamics
Biomedical fluid mechanics with application in blood flow through arteries and heart-lung machines, and airfoil during non-invasive ventilation therapy.
More information
Fluid Mechanics in Turbomachinery
Computational, experimental and analytical studies in fluid and solid mechanics ranging from application-oriented studies to fundamental mechanics-oriented studies.
More information
Computational Fluid Dynamics - Algorithms & Design
Development of improved fluid dynamics simulations.
More information
Fluid Mechanics of Functional Materials
Development of multi-scale functional materials by using droplets or bubbles as 'building blocks templates' for solid materials.
More information
Computational Physiology
Intrinsic (bio) physics of physiological flows such as blood flow in the cardiovascular system, circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid in the venitrucal system and flow in the microvasculature.
