Posdoctoral Associate Researcher (Engineering; Aerospace engineering; Mechanical engineering)

Dr. Andrew Oliva is a Postdoctoral Associate Researcher in the Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering department at the University of Notre Dame. He has approximately 4 years of experience in the gas turbine industry as part of the compressor aerodynamics group at Pratt & Whitney, where his focus was on running computational fluid dynamic simulations and airfoil design for military fans. As part of his 6 years of graduate studies, he has designed and implemented subsonic wind-tunnels, used various fluid measurement techniques, and utilized various data analysis methods. He has over 12 years of experience running computational fluid dynamics on a variety of problems including internal subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic flows as well as external hypersonic flows. Further, he also has experience in physics-based reduced order modeling which includes machine-learning, optimal approximation techniques, closed-form exact and approximate solutions, and quasi-one-dimensional flows.
