Research Profile & Publications

Experimental methods and modelling of sources and sound propagation in systems with flow. An important part of the research has been related to acoustic scattering and optimal damping of sound in ducts. Recently works related to thermoacoustics and metamaterials have come into focus as well as noise prediction for aircrafts during take-off and landing. The research has resulted in over 5900 citations (h-index 36, i10-index 99) and 8 patents.

 

Number of supervised theses and postdocs: PhD 17, Licentiate 10, Number of (2 year) post-docs 5.
