Overview
Nadia Kianvashrad is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering. Her research interests are computational aerodynamics, hypersonic flows, computational shock wave laminar and turbulent boundary layer interactions, unsteady aerodynamics, non-equilibrium hypersonic flows, energy deposition for flow and flight control, higher-order methods for computational fluid dynamics, automated design optimization using computational fluid dynamics, reduced order modeling of high-speed flows, and theoretical fluid dynamics with particular emphasis on the solution of engineering problems. She is a senior member of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and serves on the Fluid Dynamic Technical Committee of the AIAA society.
