Dr. Jaime Wong is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alberta. He obtained his PhD from Queen’s University in 2017, an MSc from the University of Calgary in 2013, and a BSc from the University of Calgary in 2011. His research interests include experimental fluid dynamics with a particular focus on bio-inspired flows for swimming and flying, energy extraction from wind energy, fluid-structure interaction, and flow control. Dr. Wong utilizes high-speed imaging and laser-based techniques such as Particle Image Velocimetry and Particle Tracking Velocimetry to investigate flow vortices produced by maneuvering wings near obstacles. His work aims to tackle problems related to understanding biological locomotion, producing innovative flying vehicles, and improving energy harvesting methods. He has published in several notable journals, contributing to the field of fluid dynamics through various investigations into vortex stabilization and flow separation phenomena.
