Karthik Duraisamy
Prof. Duraisamy is the director of the Center for Data-driven Computational Physics and the Air Force Center for Rocket Combustor Dynamics at the University of Michigan, USA. He previously held posts as lecturer in computational fluid dynamics at the University of Glasgow, and as consulting assistant professor at Stanford University.
His research is in the development of theory, algorithms and approaches to enable the construction of computational models of fluid flows. This research includes fluid dynamic modelling at a fundamental level as well as in an integrated system-level setting. An overarching theme in his research involves the use of computational methods to answer scientific and engineering questions at the desired level of sophistication with an understanding of the effect of modelling uncertainties on the predicted results.
