Projects
The following is a list of our current and completed fundamental research projects (public funding). Additionally, we also cooperate with industry and companies in modeling, simulation, optimisation and control of fluid transport phenomena.
- 2021-present CFD modelling of indoor aerosol transport based on experimental Lagrangian particle tracking measurements to infer airborne SARS-CoV-2 transmission risk, funded by the German Science Foundation (DFG).
- 2019-present Stability and transition to turbulence of pulsatile pipe flow with rigid and flexible walls, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). This project is part of the Research Group FOR2688: Instabilities, bifurcations and migration in pulsatile flows.
- 2016-present Coherent superstructures in turbulent pipe and Taylor-Couette flow, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) through the Priority Programme SPP1881: Turbulent superstructures.
- 2014-2018 Theoretical modelling and numerical simulation of antisolvent precipitation, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) through the Cluster of Excellence Engineering of Advanced Materials at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU). The project is part of an interdisciplinary cooperation a the FAU comprising six projects.
- 2014-2018 Dynamics and transport of magnetorotational instabilities in Taylor-Couette flows, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). The project is a collaboration with Rainer Hollerbach (Leeds) and Ashley Willis (Sheffield).
- 2013-2017 Structure and pattern forming processes in turbulent pipe flows, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). This project is part of the Research Group FOR1182: Transport and structure formation in tubulent Rayleigh-Bénard-, Taylor-Couette- and pipe flows near solid walls.
