معرفی
Dr. Vatsal Sanjay is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Physics, Durham University. He leads the Computational Multiphase Physics (CoMPhy) Lab, focusing on fundamental fluid dynamics research with applications in energy, manufacturing, and natural systems.
- Education: PhD in Physics (University of Twente, 2022)
- Research Areas: Soft Matter Singularities, Non-Newtonian Flows, Viscous Free-Surface Flows
His work explores topological transitions in fluid systems through continuum simulations, collaborative experiments, and theoretical analysis, addressing phenomena like droplet impact, bubble bursting, and sheet fragmentation. Recent studies span microgravity fluid mechanics, viscoelastic jet formation, and mycofluidic transport in fungal networks.
Articles reveal interdisciplinary trends combining fluid dynamics, materials science, and applied physics, with subfields spanning from Worthington jet dynamics to yield-stress fluid rupture. His Ammodo Science Fellowship enables research into fungal internal transport systems, bridging physics and biology.
- Supervision: Mentors PGR student Sam Walker
- Labs: Founder of CoMPhy Lab (moving to Durham in 2025)
- Open Science: Advocates code sharing and transparent research practices
