Yongyun Hwang

Yongyun Hwang is Professor of Fluid Mechanics at Imperial College London's Department of Aeronautics. His research combines theoretical and computational approaches to study instabilities, turbulence, pattern formation, and biological fluid systems.

Research interests include hydrodynamic stability theories, turbulence phenomena, biological pattern formation, and active fluid dynamics. Current work focuses on reduced-order modeling of turbulent flows and dynamics of active filaments.

Recent publications concentrate on turbulence modeling, reduced-order approaches for flow systems, and nonlinear dynamics in biological contexts. Research demonstrates advanced computational techniques for analyzing wall-bounded turbulence and pattern formation.

Leads the Instability, Turbulence & Pattern Formation Group and collaborates internationally on fluid dynamics research.
