Callum Atkinson is a Senior Lecturer at Monash University, primarily focused on the research of turbulent shear flows. His work involves understanding and controlling these flows in various applications such as pipes, channels, jets, and boundary layers in ships, aircraft, land vehicles, turbo-machinery, and rocket engines. Atkinson has significant expertise in utilizing high-fidelity direct numerical simulations to predict fluid dynamics behavior. His work includes the development of highly parallelized codes that can scale up to 100,000 cores for simulating turbulent boundary layers. He has also pioneered holographic tomographic techniques for volumetric measurement of fluid velocity and conducted experimental work using laser diagnostics and particle image velocimetry. Currently, he explores various projects including the active control of lift enhancement in aerofoils and the impact of surface roughness on turbulent boundary layers.
