Dr. Liu gave a seminar at the University of Houston. Thank you for hosting!

Two conference papers “Upper bound of transient growth in accelerating and decelerating wall-driven flows using the Lyapunov method” and “Stability Analysis of Thermohaline Convection With a Time-Varying Shear Flow Using the Lyapunov Method” have been accepted to the American Control Conference 2026!

One journal article, “Spatiotemporal wall pressure forecast of a rectangular cylinder with physics-aware DeepU-Fourier neural network,” has been published in Physics of Fluids!

One journal article, “Nonlinear input-output analysis of transitional shear flows using small-signal finite-gain \(\mathcal{L}_p\) stability”, has been published in Physical Review Fluids!

Dr. Liu gave a seminar at the Dynamical System Seminars at Boston University. Thank you for hosting!

One journal article “Spontaneous generation of helical flows by salt fingers” has been published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics!

Duc Nguyen and Zhengyang Wei won the 2025 DFD Travel Award, and Zhengyang was also awarded the UConn OUR Conference Presentation Award to present at the 2025 APS DFD.

Dr. Liu gave a seminar at the MIT Program in Atmospheres, Oceans, and Climate (PAOC) Colloquium. Thank you for hosting!

Jino George and Duc Nguyen passed the PhD qualification exam. Congratulations! Thanks to all committee members.

Zhengyang Wei’s research on shear flow transition as part of his University Scholar Program is featured in UConn Today and our School’s news!
