The reliable control of traveling waves emerging from the coupling of oscillations and diffusion in physical, chemical and biological systems is a long-standing challenge within the physics community.
Vortex is a natural fluid phenomenon that is often of great consequence in almost any practical flow, such as shear layers, wakes, jets, plumes, and multi-phase or multi-physics interfaces. In fluid ...
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a major widespread health issue that affects millions of patients globally every year. These infections are not only uncomfortable, but also challenging to treat, ...
Computational methods are routinely used to solve fluid flow problems in academia and industry, alike. At Northwestern, cutting-edge and novel Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are ...
Fluid dynamics is the study of the motion of liquids, gases and plasmas. Flow is dependent on the intrinsic properties of the matter itself, such as compressibility, viscosity and density.
My research interests can be broadly classified as geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics (GAFD). Some of the problems in which I’m interested are the generation of planetary magnetic fields via ...
Stars with masses between 10 and 30 times that of the sun, in their final evolutionary stages, form an iron core that ultimately collapses into a neutron star. This collapse releases a tremendous ...
