Personal Statement
Dr. Fossati is Senior Lecturer (equiv. Associate Professor) at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering of the University of Strathclyde. His research interests are in the area of multi-physics and multi-fidelity computational aerodynamics. His expertise is in the field of numerical methods for aerodynamics with a focus on high-speed and non-equilibrium flows, data-driven Reduced Basis Methods and mesh optimization and (re-)generation. At Strathclyde he is a member of the Aerospace Centre of Excellence (ACE) and he is the director of the Laboratory for Future Air-Space Transportation Technologies (FASTT-Lab).
He is member of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, acts in the international advisory committee of the Parallel CFD conference. He is associate editor of Computers and Fluids and serves as a reviewer for several journals in teh area of fludi mechanics and numerical methods such as the Journal of Computational Physics, Physics of Fluids, AIAA Journal, Journal of thermophysics and Heat transfer, International Journal of Multiphase Flows, Aerospace Science and Technology, Mathematics and Computers in Simulation and the International Journal of Computational Fluid Dynamics.
