Research
Welcome!
My research focuses on fluid dynamics, particularly turbulence. Current areas of interest include:
Turbulent Flows in Acceleration and Deceleration
I aim to understand and model turbulent flows around vehicles on land, at sea, and in the air, using turbulence theory, high-performance computing, and advanced analysis tools.
Hydraulic Turbines – Hydropower Innovation Center (Heki)
Within the Hydraulic Machinery Consortium, the Heki center advances the design of hydraulic turbines by improving our understanding of flow behavior and flow-induced vibrations in these machines.
Flow Through Tissue-Engineered Heart Valves
As part of a multidisciplinary program combining biomedical engineering, mechanical design, and fluid mechanics, we experimentally study the flow through tissue-engineered heart valves in a bioreactor environment.

Fields of interest
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
