Research summary

Carlo Scalo works on fluid dynamics, particularly high-speed (supersonic and hypersonic) flows, boundary-layer turbulence, and acoustic wave phenomena, using both numerical simulation methods and theoretical analysis. His work spans topics such as porous-wall effects on turbulence, hypersonic boundary layer stability, vortex dynamics, and engineered acoustic devices for sound energy absorption. Students would likely engage with computational fluid dynamics (simulating fluid flow using numerical methods), high-order numerical methods, and applications relevant to aerospace and wind-tunnel testing.
