Areas of interest: 

Primary Research Theme: Aerodynamics and Fluid Mechanics
Research Group/Lab: CFD Lab

Professor Habashi's research group at the 平特五不中 CFD Lab have made significant and original strides in the fields of in-flight icing and computational wind engineering (CWE) in the last decade. Currently, they are addressing in a cohesive manner some long pending issues of both fields, via analytical and computational basis, instead of empirical approaches. The proposed research projects are diverse from an engineering applications perspective but the underlying mathematics and the computational methodology is very similar, and can be classified as coupled multi-physics and multi-scale problems.
