Paolo Capobianchi
Paolo Capobianchi is currently a Lecturer in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Strathclyde. He graduated in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Rome La Sapienza with a thesis focused on the numerical investigation of particle deposition in gas turbines. Afterwards, he joined Strathclyde as a PhD student where he investigated the dynamics of droplets in complex flows (non-isothermal flows, non-Newtonian flows and ferrofluids). Moreover, he held a postdoc at Strathclyde where he worked on the investigation of particle accumulation structures in thermocapillary liquid bridges. His research focuses on the dynamics of multiphase flows (particle-laden flows and interfacial flows) in both isothermal and non-isothermal conditions, non-Newtonian viscoelastic flows and ferromagnetic fluids. His approach is mainly numerical (CFD), but he also has experience with theoretical manipulations and solution of the governing equations of fluid dynamics.
