Under the leadership of Professor Philip L.-F. Liu, research interests of our group involves in a wide range of topics in fluid mechanics and hydrodynamics, including:

        ● Tsunamis;

        ● Free surface tracking;

        ● Wave-structure interaction;

        ● Sediment transport;

        ● Turbulence;

        ● Internal Wave; and

        ● Experimental Studies.

        In the past decades, with the efforts and contributions from many researchers, several numerical models have been initial developed or significantly improved by our group, e.g., COMCOT, COBRAS, COULWAVE, iWave and TRUCHAS.

        These models have been validated and successfully used inside/outside our group to study fluid/wave problems in many aspects, ranging from small scale turbulence to large-scale tsunamis.
