Research Projects
Applications
-
Development of flow management strategies.
-
Analysis of effects induced by distributed surface roughness
and, in particular, role of
roughness in the laminar-turbulent transition, in
generation of pressure losses in micro-channels and in
modifying structures in turbulent flow. Use of roughness for
the development of flow management strategies.
-
Convection driven by buoyancy and by surface tension effects.
Use of heating for the development of flow management
strategies.
-
Topological bifurcations and moving boundary problems in flow
systems. Development of strategies for management of interface
rupture processes.
-
Flow phenomena driven by electric and magnetic fields. Use of
these phenomena for the development of flow management
strategies.
-
Development of novel energy storage concepts.
Methodology
- Development of the immersed boundary conditions method.
-
Development of spectral methods.
-
Development of accurate methods suitable for the moving
boundary problems.
-
Hydrodynamic stability theory for spatially modulated flows.
