Personal profile
Research Interests
The research in our lab includes
(i) multi-length scale surface fabrication (nano-, micro-, and milli- scale manufacturing),
(ii) thermal-fluids engineering (fluid mechanics, phase change heat transfer, mass diffusion, and droplet/bubble/particle-surface interaction), and
(iii) bio-inspired surface engineering for a sustainable future (water collection, environmental pollution reduction, and energy-saving surface designs).
