Junlin Yuan
Assistant Professor
Mechanical Engineering (ME), College of Engineering
Engineering Bldg, 428 S Shaw Ln Room 2439
Biography
Junlin Yuan's research interests include turbulence simulations and modeling, transition and separation control, and fluid-structure interaction. Flow physics interpreted from large-scale simulations are used to develop and improve turbulence models in realistic scenarios in engineering, environmental and biological flows.
