Dr. Bandi Eswara Kumar
Associate Professor
Alliance College of Engineering and Design
Dr. Eswar is a holder of a Ph.D. in Bluff-body Aerodynamics from Wind Engineering Research Centre, Tokyo Polytechnic University, Japan. His masters degree is in Aeronautics from MIT Campus, Anna University, Chennai, India in the year 2002. He boasts a good track record of professional experience, with a dedicated focus on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) spanning 14 years. His expertise has contributed significantly to organizations in both the domestic and international landscapes.
Since then, He has been working in CFD domain in his entire industrial experience at various organizations in Bangalore and abroad. His research is more focussed on fluid flows using experimental and computational techniques using MATLAB and Python. He teaches CFD, FEM, Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer and other aero related subjects.
