BACKGROUND
Dr Saidul Islam working as a Scholarly Teaching Fellow in the School of Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering, University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia. Dr Islam completed his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Brisbane, Australia. Prior to starting the current role, Dr Islam worked as a postdoctoral research fellow and casual lecturer at UTS. Dr Islam got expertise in computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and biomechanical modelling.
Dr Islam’s current research activities focus on the following areas: (a)Computational flow modelling, Human lung Modelling, Blood pump modelling, Inertial cell separation .
(b) Heat and Mass Transfer in curved duct flow, Phase Change Materials (PCM), Thermo-fluids modelling.
