Research summary
AI-generated

Huidan Yu develops computational fluid dynamics methods, especially lattice Boltzmann simulation techniques, to model fluid flow in complex systems ranging from porous materials (rocks, nuclear waste forms, geopolymers) to biomedical applications like blood flow in blood vessels, drug delivery in the eye, and heart-assist device design. Much of the work involves building image-based simulations, where medical or geological scan data is turned into computer models, often accelerated using GPU (graphics processor) computing. This research sits at the intersection of fluid mechanics, computational engineering, and biomedical or geo-engineering applications.

Publication output rose to a peak around 2018-2019, then settled into a steadier, somewhat lower rate of about 3-4 papers per year over the past five years.
