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.

Focal Areas:

(Aero) Acoustics and Aerodynamics
Studies focusing on environmental acoustics, wind turbine aerodynamics, and aeroacoustic noise understanding and reduction.
Computational Fluid Dynamics - Algorithms & Design
Development of improved fluid dynamics simulations.
Fluid Mechanics in Turbomachinery
Computational, experimental and analytical studies in fluid and solid mechanics ranging from application-oriented studies to fundamental mechanics-oriented studies.
Biophysical Fluid Dynamics
Biomedical fluid mechanics with applications in blood flow through arteries and heart-lung machines, and airfoil during non-invasive ventilation therapy.
Computational Physiology
Intrinsic (bio) physics of physiological flows such as blood flow in the cardiovascular system, circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid in the ventricular system and flow in the microvasculature.
