Presenter

Dr Georgios Fourtakas is a Lecturer in complex flow modelling and simulation at the Department of Mechanical, Aerospace & Civil Engineering of the University of Manchester. He specializes in Lagrangian, Eulerian and high-order particle discretisation schemes such as SPH, complex flows including multiphase and non-Newtonian flows, and sediment scouring and resuspension. George has expertise in high performance computing and heterogeneous architectures within the particle methods framework. He is a core developer of the open-source code DualSPHysics and is responsible (developer and maintainer) for the non-Newtonian and multiphase variant of the solver.
