Fundamental, experimental studies in fluid mechanics with particular emphasis on flow control and turbulence

Active and passive control of shear layers

  • boundary layer skin-friction reduction
  • separation control
  • jet control
  • transition control

Development of smart materials for flow control

  • "dimple" actuators
  • pressure sensing
  • microfabrication
  • kagome lattices for friction drag reduction

Turbulent shear layers with changing boundary conditions

  • Reynolds number scaling
  • roughness

Pressure fluctuations

Mathematical tools for turbulence data analysis
