Marco D'Alessandro

I specialised in computational fluid dynamics, turbulence, sediment transport, and river flows. My research delves into understanding fluid behavior in rivers and other natural environments. Here are some specific areas I've explored:
 * Flow over realistic river dunes: I've studied how fluids behave over river beds composed of loose sediment.
 * Wall modeling in high Reynolds number simulations: I've implemented models to simulate fluid flow over moving surfaces.
 * Sediment transport using Large Eddy Simulation: I've analyzed how sediment moves in rivers using advanced simulation techniques.
 * Flow past cylinder arrays using the Lattice Boltzmann Method: I've simulated fluid flow around objects like cylinders using a specific computational method.

I plan to use my research experience to develop practical solutions for sustainable river management, aiming to enhance environmental stability.

My passion extends beyond research to the classroom. I have experience teaching engineering undergraduate courses. Currently, I teach aviation management courses to undergraduate students. My teaching approach is modern and learner-centered, ensuring a stimulating and engaging learning environment for my students.
