Rate My Professor Julio Soria

Soria's research specializes in the physics and control of turbulent shear flows, using physical experiments and direct numerical simulations. His interests include attached and separated turbulent boundary layer flows, subsonic and supersonic jet flows, swirling flows, and development of non-intrusive optical experimental measurement methods such as particle image velocimetry (PIV), stereo-PIV, tomographic PIV, and high-speed PIV. Key publications include 'Flagellar energetics from high-resolution imaging of beating patterns in tethered mouse sperm' (eLife, 2021), 'Receptivity characteristics of under-expanded supersonic impinging jets' (Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020), 'A novel 4D digital holographic PIV/PTV methodology using iterative predictive inverse reconstruction' (Measurement Science and Technology, 2020), and 'On the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelling to design improved dry powder inhalers' (Pharmaceutical Research, 2021). He is a Fellow of the Australasian Fluid Mechanics Society, Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and member of the American Physical Society and European Mechanics Society. Soria serves as Associate Editor of Theoretical and Computational Fluid Mechanics and on the editorial advisory boards of Experiments in Fluids and Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science. He contributes to national and international technical and research funding committees.
