Research Interests
My research interests are in the area of fluid mechanics, in particular in multiphase and complex fluid. The application of complex multiphase flows spans widely in different industrial processes, from oil production and transportation to fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals production.
With an interest in creating new solutions to the chemical engineering industry, microfluidic approaches in evaluating complex multiphase fluid have been employed to bridge the gap between academic research and industrial processes as a process intensification tool.
