• PhD Student

  • Oct 2010 - Oct 2014

  Primary focus on LES/CAA simulations for supersonic jet noise reduction using steady-state, flapping and pulsed fluidic injection.

• Research Assistant

  • Jul 2009 - Oct 2010

  CFD optimization of aerodynamic loads on a train on an embankment. Main focus during the time period was on numerical studies on a novel acoustic liner concept for reduced noise emissions of jet engines using LES and RANS.

• Master Thesis Project

  • Oct 2008 - Jun 2009

  Implementation of an automatic shape optimization algorithm for aerodynamic properties of a car. Modefrontier was used for optimization, Sculptor for mesh morphing and AVL Fire for mesh generation and solving the flow using URANS/LES. Bash scripts controlled software communication.
