معرفی
Dr. Daisuke Takagi is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, specializing in fluid mechanics and biological physics. He joined the university in 2013 after earning his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge (2010), advised by Herbert Huppert FRS and Jim McElwaine. His research focuses on fluid dynamics in biological systems, including microswimmer locomotion, hydrodynamic sensing, and granular flows.
Research Interests:
- Fluid Mechanics
- Biological Physics
- Low Reynolds Number Flows
- Bio-inspired Robotics
- Predator-Prey Dynamics
- Thin Film and Surface Wave Dynamics
Research Trends: Takagi's work bridges theoretical fluid mechanics and biological systems, with recent focus on microscale propulsion (copepods, snails, bacteria), ecological escape mechanisms, and bio-inspired engineering. His 2023-2025 publications emphasize optimal fluid transport systems and adaptive behavior in confined environments.
Awards & Grants: No specific honors listed in text, though his work suggests sustained research activity in biomathematics and fluid dynamics.
Advising & Collaborations: No advisees listed; however, his research involves interdisciplinary projects with marine biology and robotics teams. Office: Keller 406.
