Long Wu

Dr Long Wu is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Southampton specializing in aeroacoustics and computational fluid dynamics, with research focused on high-order numerical methods and design optimization for noise reduction in aerospace systems including aeroengines and turbomachinery.

Holding a PhD and BEng degree, his work centers on computational techniques for simulating and mitigating aircraft engine noise through high-fidelity simulations and adjoint-based optimization of fan and compressor components. Key research areas include boundary closure stability, tone noise propagation, and nonlinear acoustic effects in engine intakes.

His 2018-2024 publications demonstrate consistent expertise in computational aeroacoustics, bridging theoretical numerical methods with practical noise control solutions for turbomachinery. Recent work emphasizes stable high-order schemes and optimization frameworks for reducing buzz-saw noise and improving aerodynamic-acoustic performance.

As a member of the University's Acoustics Group, Dr Wu supervises PhD student Joseph Stephen Paul Binns on aeroengine noise propagation and accepts new PhD applicants. No scientific awards or research grants are documented in his current profile.
