Zhongwang Dou works in experimental fluid mechanics, studying how fluids and particles move and interact in engineered and biomedical systems. This includes topics such as turbulence and particle motion, drug-delivery devices like autoinjectors and syringes, heart valve fluid dynamics, and flow-induced vibration of flexible structures. The work combines laboratory experiments (e.g., particle image velocimetry) with applications ranging from medical devices to insect flight and leak detection.
