Biography
Shahab Mirjalili is an Assistant Professor in Fluid Mechanics at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. He joined KTH in January 2025 and leads the MultiphysX Flow Lab. He is affiliated with the Swedish e-Science Research Center (SeRC), contributing to the SeRC Efficient Simulation Software Initiative and serving as coordinator for the FLOW community. Mirjalili is a co-PI for the FLUX initiative and is involved in the Digital Futures Research Pairs project titled 'AI Clean Energy Conversion: Learning Multiscale Dynamics of Fuel Cell Systems.' Previously, he worked as a Research Associate (2022–2024) and Postdoctoral Fellow (2019–2022) at Stanford University, where he earned his PhD in Mechanical Engineering in 2019 under the supervision of Prof. Ali Mani, focusing on developing numerical methods for simulating multiphase flows and studying micro-bubble generation. He holds an MS from Stanford University and a BS from Sharif University of Technology in Mechanical Engineering. In 2018, he received the Gallery Fluid Motion Award from the American Physical Society Division of Fluid Dynamics. His research lies at the intersection of fluid mechanics, scientific computing, and machine learning, aiming to develop computational methods for predictive understanding of complex flow problems, involving multi-physics couplings and multiphase dynamics at various scales.
