My expertise and research interest lie in the field of fluid mechanics. The common theme of my research is the dynamics of liquid-gas interface or free surface ranging from micrometer to planetary length scale. The dynamics of free surfaces is particularly interesting to me as it is crucial in the transportation of various physical quantities.
