航空航天与机械工程哲学博士-流动物理与控制

流物理与控制研究所正式成立于2001年7月。研究经费来自众多政府机构，包括国防部（陆军，空军和海军），DARPA和NASA Langley，Ames的所有分支机构，格伦和德莱顿研究中心。桥接该小组的一般研究主题涉及流量诊断，预测和控制。这导致旨在验证或发展流体动力学行为理论的基础研究与理论在控制流量方面的应用相结合。这涉及到许多流场，包括层流和湍流边界层，射流，剪切层以及不可压缩和可压缩马赫数的尾流。应用包括过渡控制，减阻，混合，流致振动和声学。除实验外，还长期存在着理论和计算流体动力学（CFD）和复杂流
Fluid Mechanics has been an area of focus at Notre Dame for more than 100 years. Manned gliders were on campus even before the Wright brothers flew for the first time. The College of Engineering's Institute for Flow Physics and Control (FlowPAC) accelerates the research activities in fluid mechanics at Notre Dame, bringing together many faculty, students, and researchers to address problems across a number of domains. Research led by our Fluid Mechanics faculty advances understanding of fluid flows through diagnostics and computational modeling and developing new technologies to predict, measure, and control fluid dynamics. We utilize a wide variety of theoretical, numerical, and experimental methods to tackle challenges ranging from reducing drag and noise to understanding hypersonic aerodynamics and combustion. Our experimental facilities, based in the Hessert Laboratory and Hessert Laboratory at White Field, encompass 19 wind tunnels of various sizes and speeds, including subsonic tunnels up to 1 m in cross section, transonic tunnels up to 1 m in cross section, and large-scale hypersonic facilities. Specialty facilities include an anechoic wind tunnel, an atmospheric boundary layer tunnel, a hypersonic combustion tunnel, and multiple turbomachinery facilities.
