Fluid Mechanics
See the Faculty Directory contact information.
Research Showcase: Professor Krishnan Mahesh is researching propeller crashback, which is the sudden reversal of rotation by marine propellers. This maneuver is performed under emergency conditions, and results in large fluctuating forces that affect required propeller blade strength and maneuverability. Click here for more info. |
