Research Background:
̶ Computational fluid dynamics: DNS and LES of turbulent flows; simulation of free-surface flows; computation of nonlinear waves
̶ Turbulence boundary layers at smooth and rough undulatory surfaces: Flow over wavy boundaries; marine atmospheric boundary layer; biomimetic of fish swimming
̶ Multi-phase flows and interfacial transfer of mass and heat: Transport of heat and mass in multi-fluids flows; free-surface turbulence; wave-turbulence interaction
̶ Sustainable energy: Ocean wave and wind as renewable energy resources; floating wind turbines; wave energy converters
̶ Environmental fluid mechanics: Turbulent transport at water surface; effect of surfactants; air-water transfer of heat and greenhouse gases; optical effects in aquatic environment
̶ Scientific computing and modeling: High-performance large-scale parallel computing; data-intensive computing; multi-physics modeling
