Research Interests & Links
My research focuses on the advanced modeling and analysis of fluid flow and heat transfer in complex micro-scale systems, with particular emphasis on non-Newtonian fluids and nanofluids, including hybrid and tetra-hybrid nanoparticles. The work explores electrokinetic phenomena such as electro-osmosis and electric double layer effects, alongside bio-inspired mechanisms like peristaltic and cilia-driven transport. By integrating mathematical modeling with computational and data-driven techniques, including artificial neural networks, this research aims to enhance prediction accuracy and optimize system performance. The outcomes contribute to emerging applications in microfluidics, biomedical engineering, drug delivery systems, and lab-on-chip technologies, bridging fundamental theory with practical, real-world solutions.

As an educator in my field, my role is to promote active learning in my students. The goal that I consistently pursue is to share key knowledge, ensure skill development, and stimulate knowledge creation. I believe it is important to stimulate students’ critical thinking and problem-solving competencies through practical applications. It is also important to consider topics that are of interest to them, thereby stimulating minds and supporting independent inquiry.
Although I mainly follow the student-centered teaching approach, I am always adopting different teaching styles based on my students’ needs and basic skills.
Courses taught in the past 5 years:
Magnetic Thin Films, Mathematical Physics, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Physics education.
Canadian Association of Physics (CAP)
