Dr. Avick Sinha is a Senior Research Fellow in the Advanced Engineering Centre at the University of Brighton. He has expertise in multiphase flows & free shear flows with 8+ years of experience in experiments and numerical modelling.  He is a Chartered Engineer (IMechE, UK) and also an Associate Fellow of Higher Education (UK).

He is currently working as a senior research fellow for the £3.2M EPSRC grant with the Advanced Engineering Centre and Centre for Regenerative Medicine and Devices that focuses on the development of a new generation of wound dressings. 

Previously, Avick Sinha worked as Research Fellow in the Gas Turbine Transmission Research Centre (G2TRC) at the University of Nottingham (affliated to the Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre). At the University of Nottingham, he has worked on several projects: IUK funded COAST, Cornerstone and AERIES projects.

Supervisory Interests:

Experiment: Using High speed imaging & Optical measuring technique (PIV, PLIF,BB-LIF, Shadowgraphy) to investigate  a wide range of applications from small scale (droplet/bubble formation in gas turbines and gas-sheared flow) to understanding flow instability in free shear flow. 

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD): Primarily using OpenFOAM  to investigate flow boiling, cavitation, turbulent multiphase flows, heat and mass transfer, MHD and high-speed aerodynamics.
