معرفی
Dr. Hanliang Guo is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science at Ohio Wesleyan University (OWU), joining in 2022 after postdoctoral training at the University of Michigan. His research bridges applied mathematics, biological fluid mechanics, and scientific computing, with a focus on ciliary systems, microswimmer optimization, and fluid-structure interactions. He also serves as the department’s Industry Liaison, fostering academic-industry collaborations.
Education: B.E. (Tsinghua University), M.S. and Ph.D. in Mathematics (University of Southern California, advised by Prof. Eva Kanso). Postdoctoral mentorship under Prof. Shravan Veerapaneni at the University of Michigan.
Research Interests: Mathematical modeling of ciliary flows, optimal microswimmer design, fluid dynamics in biological systems, and data-driven approaches to fluid mechanics. Notable contributions include a Nature Physics paper on Stentor colonial hydrodynamics and a Journal of Fluid Mechanics study on microswimmer optimization.
Awards & Grants: 2024 AMS-Simons PUI Grant. Recognized for computational tools like the Xlip MATLAB app for simulating axisymmetric microswimmers.
Teaching & Mentorship: Teaches courses in calculus, linear algebra, numerical methods, and data mining. Mentored undergraduate research projects on traffic flow modeling, machine learning for microswimmer classification, and fluid dynamics in confined geometries.
Software & Labs: Developed open-source Flow Simulator for traffic modeling and Xlip for microswimmer optimization. Active in collaborative projects with institutions like Tulane University and Kenyon College.
