Van Thuan Hoang received his Master's degree from the University of Adelaide in 2019. After graduation, he received an Adelaide Graduate Research Scholarship to support his Ph.D. program at the University of Adelaide in 2021. He currently works as a researcher in the project of permeable surfaces for drag reduction under the supervision of Professor Maziar Arjomandi. His research focuses on turbulent boundary layer controls.

My research focuses on fluid dynamics, specifically turbulent boundary layers. It aims to deepen our understanding of turbulence to create more sustainable engineering solutions. By reducing skin friction drag in turbulent boundary layers, the research improves the efficiency of various engineering applications like aircraft, ships, cars, pipelines, heliostats, and solar panels.

  • Aerodynamics (turbulent boundary layers, turbulent boundary layer control, turbulent drag reduction, and etc.)
  • Renewable energy (solar energy, wind energy, and etc.)
