Current Research

I am a Research Scientist in the IIHR - Hydroscience and Engineering at the University of Iowa. My current research is focused on the development of numerical methods for a variety of applications: free-surface/interfacial flows, fluid-structure interactions, and others.

Numerical methods:

1. Level set method;
2. Sharp interface method.

Validation cases:

1. Solitary wave;
2. Dam-break problem;
3. 3D spherical cap bubble.

Non-breaking and Breaking waves generated by immersed bodies:

1. 2D non-breaking waves generated by an immersed NACA0012 hydrofoil;
2. 3D spilling breaking waves generated by an immersed NACA0012 hydrofoil;
3. 2D impulsive plunging breaking waves behind a surface-mounted bump;
4. 3D impulsive plunging breaking wave behind a surface-mounted bump.

Breaking waves generated by free-surface-piercing bodies:

1. 3D waves generated by a NACA0024 hydrofoil;
2. 3D waves around a DTMB5512 model.

Two-phase flows interacting with moving bodies:

1. 2D wave-body interaction: rotators;
2. 2D water exit;
3. 2D water entry and impact;
4. 3D landslide-generated waves.

Doctoral Research

I received my PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park in 2005 under the supervision of Prof. Elias Balaras. In the course of my PhD study, I developed a highly efficient embedded boundary method with formal second-order accuracy for the high-fidelity simulations (LES and DNS) of turbulent flows interacting with complex geometries and moving boundaries. This method is a variation of the immersed boundary method and it can describe the moving or deforming interfaces on Cartesian grids without smearing the sharpness of the interfaces. We have successfully applied this method to the a variety of non-trivial cases in bluff-body flows, biological flows, physiological flows, vortex-induced vibrations, and fluid-structure interactions:

Two-dimensional validation cases with moving bodies (prescribed motions):

1. Translating cylinders in a planar channel;
2. Forced oscillating cylinder in a quiescent fluid at Re=100;
3. Forced oscillating cylinder in cross flow at Re=185;

Two-dimensional fluid-structure interactions/vortex induced vibrations (two-way coupling):

1. Cylinder with one degree of freedom in cross flow at Re=90~200;
2. Cylinder with two degrees of freedom in cross flow at Re=200;
3. Vortex-induced vibration in an Array of Cylinders at Re=200.

Three-dimensional cases with stationary bodies:

1. LES of fully developed turbulent pipe flow;
2. DNS of laminar flow past a sphere at Re = 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250;
3. DNS of laminar flow past a sphere at Re = 300;
4. DNS of transitional flow past a sphere at Re=1,000;
5. LES of transitional flow over an airfoil at Reynolds number 10,000.

Three-dimensional cases with moving boundaries:

1. LES of turbulent flow over a traveling wavy wall at Re=10,170;
2. LES of transitional flow past a mechanical heart valve with moving leaflets at Re=4,000.
