Background
  • Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University
  • Focuses on theoretical and computational innovations in transitional and turbulent shear flows, two-fluid shear flows, and turbulence
  • Addresses challenges arising from the interaction of turbulence with momentum, heat, and mass transfer
  • Affiliated with the Institute for Data Intensive Engineering and Science (IDIES), the Center for Environmental and Applied Fluid Mechanics (CEAFM), and the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute (HEMI)
  • Leads the Flow Science and Engineering (FSE) group, known for high-fidelity simulations and data assimilation using machine learning to reconstruct full flow fields from sparse sensor data
  • Current research includes modeling and controlling transition to turbulence in extreme flows, flow manipulation, turbulent drag reduction, and stability of complex fluids
