Congratulations Dr. Sreetej Lakkam
Congratulations to Sreetej Lakkam, who successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) on 19 July 2020. His thesis, “Physics-based Machine Learning for the Design of Marine Hydrodynamic Applications”, supervised by Roland Bouffanais and co-supervised by Jurriaan Gillissen, develops machine-learning models trained on physics-rich flow data to give marine and underwater systems some of the sensing abilities of aquatic animals. It tackles three problems: identifying the shape of a hidden obstacle from the flow it generates, forecasting the long-term dynamics of chaotic and turbulent flows, and estimating the motion parameters of an oscillating flexible hydrofoil—a step towards more efficient propulsion for autonomous underwater vehicles.
