Julien Landel

Julien Landel is a Senior Lecturer in Applied Mathematics at the Department of Mathematics, The University of Manchester. His research focuses on mathematical modelling of complex flow phenomena with applications in industrial and environmental fluid mechanics. He is a member of the Manchester Centre for Nonlinear Dynamics and has worked with companies such as BP and Dstl on projects involving fluid mechanics and mathematical modelling. His research interests include the mathematical modelling of turbulent flows, convective mass transfer, and the impact of surfactants on superhydrophobic surfaces for drag reduction. He has also explored the dispersion and mixing of turbulent flows in various contexts.

Julien R Landel is a researcher in Fluid Mechanics and Applied Mathematics, focusing on the interaction between fluid dynamics and surface phenomena. His work explores the impact of surfactants on drag reduction in superhydrophobic surfaces, the mechanics of cleaning and decontamination processes, and turbulent mixing in complex flows. Landel's research also includes the study of quasi-two-dimensional jets, spherical cap bubbles, and the behavior of viscous drops on inclined surfaces. His publications highlight the role of surfactant impairment, slip dynamics, and the statistical self-similarity of fluid flows. Through direct numerical simulations and experimental techniques like particle image velocimetry, he investigates the underlying mechanisms of fluid-structure interactions and mass transfer in multiphase systems.
