Title: Sub-grid scale break-up modeling for high-fidelity LES of liquid atomization
Bio: Dr. Desjardins joined the Cornell MAE faculty in July 2011. Prior to that, he was on the Mechanical Engineering faculty at the University of Colorado at Boulder. He received a Master of Science in Aeronautics and Astronautics from ENSAE (Supaero) in Toulouse, France, in 2004. The same year, he received a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University, then in 2008 he obtained a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. He received an NSF CAREER award in 2014 to work on turbulence modeling around liquid-gas interfaces, and he was presented with the Junior Award from the International Conference on Multiphase Flow in 2016.

Title: From DNS to MANN-LES of droplet-laden decaying isotropic turbulence
Bio: Antonino Ferrante is an Associate Professor of the William E. Boeing Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics at the University of Washington that he joined as Assistant Professor in 2009. In 2004, he received the PhD in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from the University of California, Irvine, where he continued his research as Postdoctoral Scholar until 2007. From 2007 to 2009, he was Postdoctoral Scholar in Aeronautics at the California Institute of Technology (GALCIT). Professor Ferrante is recipient of the NSF CAREER Award (2011) for studying droplet-laden turbulence.

Title: Modeling the subgrid dynamics of immiscible interfaces with a dual scale approach
Bio: Marcus Herrmann obtained his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Technology (RWTH) Aachen, Germany in 2001. He is now professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering in the School for Engineering of Matter, Transport and Energy at Arizona State University. His areas of expertise include fluid mechanics; modeling and numerical simulation of multiphase flows; model development and validation for atomization processes in turbulent multiphase flows; and numerical methods for discontinuous interfaces. Professor Herrmann was a visiting scientist at the University of Technology Eindhoven, Netherlands in 2001 before joining the Center for Turbulence Research (CTR) at Stanford as a postdoctoral fellow in 2002. Since 2004, he is a research associate both at CTR and the Center for Integrated Turbulence Simulations.

Title: Towards statistically-consistent formalisms for two-way coupled turbulent particle-laden flows
Bio: Aymeric Vié obtained his PhD in Fluid Dynamics from INP Toulouse in 2010. After a post-doctoral period of about three years at Ecole Centrale Paris and about one year at Stanford University, he obtained a CNRS position in the Applied Mathematics Laboratory of the CentraleSupélec, which he joined in 2014. Since 2019, he is the co-Head of the third year track Energy Efficiency . His main fields of research are the modelling and simulation of turbulent two-phase flows with applications in combustion, two-phase flows and biomedical engineering.

Title: Interphase forces in turbulent dispersed multiphase flows
Bio: Simon Schneiderbauer received his PhD in Engineering Sciences (completion with distinction) from JKU in 2010. In 2011, he received the Erwin Wenzl Award for excellent PhD thesis, Upper Austrian government, Austria and started his position as Senior Scientist at the Department of Particulate Flow Modelling, JKU. In 2012, he completed with distinction the Master in physics and mathematics leading to secondary teacher accreditation at JKU. In Habilitation in Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer. Since 2016, he is the Head of the Christian-Doppler Laboratory for Multi-scale Modeling of Multiphase Processes. He is interested in the numerical and mathematical multi-scale modeling of multiphase flows. This involves development of new models, their experimental validation as well as their application.
