Personal profile
Research Interests
Experimental & Computational Fluid Dynamics:
I have an interest in fluid dynamics and its applications to Engineering applications. I am particularly interested in laminar to turbulent transition, in particular boundary-layer receptivity and stability theory. I have an interest in fluid structure interaction and flow control by means of compliant surfaces, roughness and MEMS. My work is through experiment and numerical modelling (velocity-vorticity and other methods). I have an interest in flow over flat plates, aerofoils and rotating disks.
Fluid Mechanics and Biological Applications
I have an interest in modelling flows through collapsible tubes and arteries, particular with the aim of understanding the flow physics and development of assitive devices. This work is of a fundamental scientific and practical nature.
Compartmental Modelling
Modelling cell growth of cancer cells using pk-pD models.
Teaching & Learning
I have an interest in teaching pedagogy and students attitudes to learning towards Mathematics and Engineering.
