报告人简介：

　　Dr. Lian Shen earned his bachelor’s degree from Department of Modern Mechanics at University of Science and Technology of China in 1993 and his doctoral degree in Fluid Mechanics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2001.  He is currently a Full Professor with tenure in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University of Minnesota, USA.  He also serves as the Director of the Saint Anthony Falls Laboratory, which is a multidisciplinary fluid mechanics institute at University of Minnesota consisting of about 60 faculty and staff and many students.  Dr. Shen’s research focuses on computational fluid dynamics of free-surface flows, boundary-layer flows, turbulence, and flow-structure interaction.  Many of his studies concentrate on the fundamental mechanisms of geophysical and environmental turbulence flows.  Dr. Shen has published extensively in top journals in fluid mechanics, and has been actively serving the scientific community and playing a leading role.  He has participated and played a leading role in the theoretical and computational efforts in many large collaborative projects in the United States.

沈炼博士1993年本科毕业于中国科学技术大学近代力学系，2001年获得麻省理工学院流体力学博士学位。目前，他在美国明尼苏达大学机械工程系担任终身正教授，同时兼任圣安东尼瀑布实验室的主任。该实验室是明尼苏达大学的一个多学科流体力学研究所，包括教职工约六十人以及众多学生。沈博士的科研侧重于含自由表面的流体，边界层，湍流，和流固耦合的计算流体力学。他的很多工作专注于自然界中的以及和环境相关的湍流的机理研究。沈博士在顶尖的流体力学杂志上发表了众多的学术文章，同时活跃于学术圈的组织和服务工作。他在美国参与了众多大型科研合作项目，并主持这些项目的理论和计算部分。
