Research Experiences
Lagrangian Coherent Structures in Flow Past a Backward-Facing Step
Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Responsibilities include:
- Performed direct numerical simulation of flow past a backward-facing step in a duct using OpenFOAM
- Uncovered the underlying flow structures by complementary qualitative and quantitative LCS analyses
- Investigated the interaction between hyperbolic and elliptic structures
Immersed Boundary Method and Applications
Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Responsibilities include:
- Employed a rotationally oscillating cylinder with an attached flexible filament to approximate tadpole locomotion
- Developed computational models to simulate this low-Reynolds-number flow based on different immersed boundary frameworks using IBAMR
- Studied the influence of head swing frequency and tail flexibility on the performance of tadpole propulsion
Flow Analysis Based on Lagrangian Coherent Structures (Undergraduate Dissertation)
Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Responsibilities include:
- Conducted direct numerical simulations of lid-driven cavity flow and pitzDaily flow at different Reynolds numbers
- Extracted Lagrangian coherent structures based on both heuristic and analytical methods
- Analyzed physical mechanism behind these two flows from the Lagrangian perspective
Flow and Magnetic Structures in a Kinematic ABC-Dynamo
