Our team integrates analytical, experimental, and computational approaches to develop foundational insights and create quantitative models for diverse fluid mechanics phenomena.

We direct fundamental scientific inquiry toward natural and industrial challenges dominated by nonequilibrium flows, which trigger instabilities, generate complex patterns, form preferential pathways, and exhibit path/rate dependencies. Our work centers on multiphase and reactive flows within porous and granular media, where macroscopic behavior emerges from intricate microscopic-scale interactions. We pioneer innovative computational and experimental techniques to uncover core mechanisms and governing parameters across various scales—from microfluidics, filtration systems, microfabrication, and biological processes (nanometer to centimeter scale) to water/energy resources and geological hazards (meter to kilometer scale).

Though curiosity-driven (bridging physics, earth sciences, and engineering), our research tackles pressing environmental and industrial challenges, particularly those linked to climate change and resource scarcity. By delivering decision-support tools and advancing technologies through our interdisciplinary, multi-scale methodology, we attract diverse funding opportunities while addressing complex real-world problems.
