He studies turbulence physics using both the numerical simulation (DNS and LES) and experiment. He also develops new ideas of flow control strategies, based on physical observation, mathematical theory and bio-mimetic approach. Development of fast and accurate numerical schemes for turbulent flow inside/outside complex geometries is also one of main subjects of his research.
