معرفی
Dr Alison Williams is a Senior Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering at Swansea University, affiliated with the School of Aerospace, Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. She specializes in multiphysics modeling of complex flows, particularly in renewable energy systems such as tidal turbines and marine energy devices. As a member of the Marine Energy Research Group, her work focuses on computational modeling to assess marine energy device performance and environmental interactions. She collaborates with Welsh SMEs to evaluate marine renewable energy feasibility.
Her research interests include multiphysics modeling, non-Newtonian flows, and renewable energy systems. Notable projects involve tidal turbine array optimization, CFD validation using experimental facilities like FloWave, and techno-economic evaluations of tidal energy deployment. She has supervised PhD and EngD students in tidal energy and computational modeling.
Dr. Williams has published extensively in journals like Renewable Energy, Ocean Engineering, and Energy, with a focus on tidal energy systems, computational fluid dynamics, and turbine performance analysis. Her work bridges academic research with industrial applications, contributing to sustainable energy solutions.
