Research interests

I am interested in various problems of aerodynamics, meteorology, aeroacoustics, interfacial flows and magnetohydrodynamics. I am currently working on

  1. the three-dimensional dynamics of multiple vortices with axial jet;
  2. the viscous instabilities of vortices;
  3. the dynamics of tilted vortices in a stratified fluid;
  4. the acoustic field generation by transonic instability waves;
  5. the collapse of cavity and the formation of capillary jets;
  6. the effect of a magnetic field on the elliptic instability in a sphere.

I mainly use analytical techniques and numerical simulations. But these problems are also studied by experiments in my laboratory.

Keywords:

vortex dynamics
hydrodynamic stability
asymptotic techniques
magnetohydrodynamics
aeroacoustics
stratified fluids
