Research fields
My resarch focuses on experimental fluid dynamics.
The followings are my recent topics:
- Wake, boundary layer and jet flow.
- Flow control by DBD plasma actuator
- Turbulence Reduction of Fine-Honeycomb and evaluation of Laminar Flow Meter with Fine-honeycomb
- Aero-train
Aero-Train is a high-speed ground vehicle, which levitates aerodynamically using the wing-in-ground effect. When a wing approaches the ground or the water surface, lift-drag ratio of the wing increases greatly by the wing-in-ground effect.
