Major Scientific/Technical Achievements:

  • Significant contributions to Turbulence Modeling, CAA and CFD.

The most important are:

  • Detached-Eddy Simulation (DES) of turbulence
  • Has turned the “vector of efforts” of turbulence modeling community to hybrid RANS-LES approaches
  • General method for jet noise prediction from “first principles”
  • First non-empirical CFD/CAA tool with accuracy of 2-3dB
    • Innovative approaches to global stability analysis of turbulent flows
      • Efficient techniques and software for global stability analysis of 2D and quasi-3D RANS solutions
