Research Areas

I am interested in developing and using existing CAE solvers to tackle industrial problems. I am also interested in modeling instabilities in fluid flows. My group has gained expertiese in CFD simulations using ANSYS FLuent, OpenFOAM (various solvers) and development of inhouse codes on Lattice Boltzmann Methods (for GPU parallel computations) and traditional ROE based compressible sovler (for CPU based parallel computations). I am open to explore problem with multi-physics interations.
