PhD in engineering

This project investigates turbulent wakes around buildings and cuboid structures using wind tunnel testing and computational fluid dynamics to develop predictive tools for wind loading and climate resilience./nCollaboration between the University of Southampton and the A*STAR Institute of High-Performance Computing (IHPC) in Singapore, with a potential opportunity for a 1-2 year research attachment at IHPC./nWork includes wind tunnel testing at Southampton and high-fidelity CFD modelling at IHPC, providing detailed measurements of aerodynamic forces, pressure distributions, and flow structures, and development of a reduced-order wake model to predict flow behaviour as a function of wind speed, direction and geometry./nLocation: University of Southampton, Southampton, United Kingdom.
