معرفی
Kartik Jain is an Assistant Professor of Biofluid Dynamics at the University of Twente's Engineering Fluid Dynamics (EFD) group within the Faculty of Engineering Technology. He leads the Computational Physiology (Co∅) research group, focusing on computational modeling of physiological flows and biofluid dynamics.
Education:
- Bachelor's in Control Engineering (Kurukshetra University)
- Masters in Mechanical Engineering with Simulation Sciences specialisation (RWTH Aachen University)
- PhD in Engineering (Dr.-Ing., University of Siegen, summa cum laude)
Research Interests: Biofluid dynamics, transitional turbulence in physiological systems, computational modeling of renal hemodynamics, cerebrospinal fluid flow, and vascular stenosis. His work emphasizes high-performance computing (HPC) with contributions to the APES simulation framework and the Musubi Lattice Boltzmann solver.
Recent Research Projects:
- Computational models for Type II Endoleaks and SIRT therapy optimization
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) integration with flow simulations for stent planning
- Biofilm dynamics in confined geometries
Advising & Grants: Supervises multiple PhD and MSc students on topics like particle transport in liver therapy and stent hemodynamics. Collaborates with institutions like the University of Zurich (NCCR Kidney.CH), University of Stuttgart (SFB1313), and industrial partners like Abbott Vascular.
Labs & Teams: Co-directs the Co∅ team and actively contributes to the APES framework development at DLR Dresden. Engages in teaching fluid mechanics and Lattice Boltzmann methods at both bachelor and doctoral levels.
