About me: 

Dr. Van-Tu Nguyen is currently a research professor/ principal investigator at the School of Mechanical Engineering at Pusan National University (PNU) in Korea. He completed his Ms & PhD degrees in Mechanical Engineering from PNU between 2011 and 2017. Prior to that, he obtained his BE degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology, Hanoi National University, in Vietnam, during the period of 2005-2010. Dr. Nguyen's expertise lies in the field of computational fluid mechanics (CFM) with a specific focus on scientific computing in MechanicsMechanics/Mechanical systems. (Education/Work) 

Throughout his career, Dr. Nguyen has dedicated his research efforts to the development and utilization of algorithms for modeling various aspects of fluid mechanics and industrial/engineering systems. His recent works predominantly revolve around multiphase/interfacial (turbulent) flows, compressible flows with shock waves, free surface flows, and cavitation bubble dynamics. He has extensively worked on building numerical coding programs tailored to these applications within the realm of fluid mechanics. His contributions have been published in over 70 international journal SCI (E)/conference papers. (Research )

Dr. Nguyen's scholarly reputation is well-established through his involvement as a Principal Investigator (PI)/CoPI and key participant in 8 research projects funded by the National Research Fund of Korea (NRF) Basic Science and Research Grant & Award. Furthermore, he has been recognized as an expert in his field, being invited as a speaker, Section Chairman, and Committee member for various international conferences. He also serves as a guest editor, editorial board member, and reviewer board member for numerous reputable international scientific journals, further affirming his standing in the scientific community.  Professional Activity
