Personal Statement
Dr Paolo Capobianchi is a Lecturer in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Strathclyde. He holds a master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering and a doctoral degree in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. Moreover, he has more than two years’ postdoctoral experience matured at the University of Strathclyde under the guidance of Professor Marcello Lappa. His research interests embrace a range of topics related to the dynamics of multiphase flows such as the dynamics of droplets in both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, hydrothermal instability and particle dynamics in liquid bridges, multiphase interfacial flows in microfluidics devices and theoretical and numerical modelling of ferrofluid interfacial flows. Dr Capobianchi has published several papers as first author in internationally recognised peer-reviewed journals such as Journal of Rheology, Journal of Fluid Mechanics and Physics of Fluids among others. Moreover, he has presented his work at international conferences in the field of non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, numerical methods for fluid flows, hydrodynamic instabilities, and rheology. Dr Capobianchi is a member of the British Society of Rheology (BSR) and of the Società Italiana di Reologia (SIR). Additionally, he has been awarded two scholarships (funded by the University of Strathclyde and BSR), and one grant funded by the University of Strathclyde for a project aimed at establishing future collaborations with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
