Scientific Research

My research interest covers chemical transport phenomena, multiphase and non-Newtonian flows.The key aim is to gain fundamental and practical understandings on complex fluids and rheology through accurate numerical modelling and experimentation.  

Key Words:

  • Turbulence and multiphase flow；

  • non-Newtonian fluids and rheology；

  • Heat and mass transfer process enhancement；

  • Polymer material processing and molding；

  • Elastomer and fluid structure interaction；

  • Smart equipment and digital twin.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
