Research Intrest

Interested in the instability and the transition to turbulence in shear flows in general, and spatially developing flows in the complex geometries, multiphase flows and interfacial fluid mechanics in particular. We use combination of tools ranging from basic modeling, computational fluid mechanics, analytical and linear stability analysis to study the aforementioned areas of fluid mechanics. We also study some of these aspects experimentally.
