Computational Fluid Dynamics
We work with both mesh-based methods (such as finite volume and finite element techniques) and meshfree approaches, including Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), to study water flow, pollutant transport, and environmental processes in natural and engineered systems. These modeling approaches support the investigation of urban drainage behavior, river and coastal hydrodynamics, flood propagation, contaminant dispersion, and erosion–sedimentation dynamics.
Mesh-based methods offer high accuracy for systems with well-defined geometries, such as channels or hydraulic structures, while meshfree techniques provide flexibility for analyzing environments with complex, moving, or deformable boundaries, including shorelines, landslide interactions, and porous media.
Through these simulations, we aim to improve technical understanding of hydrodynamic and environmental processes, enabling more informed exploration of system behavior, planning considerations, and conceptual assessments within water resource and infrastructure contexts.
Structural Analysis
We apply advanced finite element analysis (FEA) techniques to study the behavior of mechanical and civil structures under static, dynamic, and environmental loading conditions. Our work includes both linear and nonlinear simulations, enabling the exploration of geometric complexity, boundary conditions, and combined load effects such as wind, seismic, thermal, impact, and operational influences.
Our analyses incorporate detailed material modeling—ranging from elastic–plastic behavior and creep to temperature-dependent properties—and may include fatigue studies to better understand long-term structural response and durability. These computational evaluations support conceptual assessments of structures such as towers, foundations, offshore components, tanks, and mechanical assemblies by providing deeper insight into their performance under varied scenarios.
Through this modeling-driven approach, we aim to enhance understanding of structural behavior and inform early-stage planning and technical studies, without serving as a substitute for formal engineering design or regulatory verification.
Hydraulic Engineering
We use advanced hydraulic modeling techniques to study the behavior of open-channel and closed-conveyance systems in a variety of environmental and engineered settings. Using tools such as HEC-RAS, FLOW-3D, and custom CFD solvers, we explore steady and unsteady flow conditions—including rapidly varying hydraulics such as surges, backwater transitions, and controlled gate operations.
These modeling efforts help examine flow patterns, conveyance characteristics, flood routing, and the hydraulic response of structures under different environmental scenarios. We also investigate energy dissipation and local scour processes around features such as stilling basins, drop structures, and plunge pools to better understand how hydraulic forces evolve in high-energy conditions.
Our work aims to provide deeper insight into hydraulic processes and support early-stage assessments, feasibility analyses, and conceptual studies of water-resource and infrastructure systems, rather than serving as a substitute for detailed engineering design or regulatory evaluation.
