Yi Zhan
PhD in Marine Technology and Engineering
Zhejiang University
I received my PhD in Marine Technology and Engineering from Zhejiang University, supervised by Prof. Min Luo and Prof. Abbas Khayyer. During my PhD, I was a visiting scholar at the EPhysLab in Spain, working with Prof. Alejandro J. C. Crespo and Dr. Iván Martínez Estévez.
My research interests lie at the intersection of computational fluid dynamics, high performance computing, and artificial intelligence. Specifically, I focus on:
- Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) methods for fluid-structure interaction problems
- High Performance Computing (HPC) with GPU parallelization for large-scale simulations
- Reinforcement Learning in Computational Fluid Dynamics (RLCFD) for intelligent flow control
