My present research focus is mainly on studying the flapping aerodynamics in application to MAVs and UWVs using computational and experimental techniques. Some of my other research interests are: Design and development of bioinspired flow separation control devices; Development of IB-LBM numerical technique to study fluid-solid interactions, particle sedimentation and heat transfer problems; Experimental fluid mechanics, flow visualizations and measurements.
