Hong Luo
Associate Professor,
Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering
PhD (1989), Pierre and Marie Curie University (France)
Research Interests
Computational fluid dynamics, discontinuous Galerkin methods, unstructured grid generation methods and parallel computing.
After receiving his PhD (1989) from University of Paris 6 (Pierre and Marie Curie University), Luo spent two years at Purdue University as a postdoctoral research associate. He joined the Science Applications International Corporation in 1991 and worked there for 16 years as a Research Scientist first and later as a Senior Research Scientist. His research interests were in the areas of development and application of numerical methods for computational fluid dynamics and included studies on a wide variety of topics, including unstructured grid methods, cartesian grid methods, discontinuous Galerkin methods, adaptive grid methods, fluid-structure interaction, bubble dynamics, multi-material flows, blast and shock wave simulation and parallel computing.
