Marco De Paoli

I am a fluid dynamicists interested in multiphase flows. I combine experiments, simulations and modelling to investigate convection in porous media, porous media flows with morphology modifications and particles in turbulence. I received my BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Udine, where I also earned my PhD in Environmental and Energy Engineering Sciences. I am currently working at the Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer – TU Wien. My CV is available for download.
Postdoctoral researchers

Vlad Giurgiu – I’m an experimentalist interested in multiphase flows, such as particle laden turbulent flows and convection in confined porous media with the aim directed at environmental problems such as oceanic micro-plastic contamination and carbon dioxide sequestration. I’ve received my BSc., MSc., and PhD. degrees from TU Wien.

Daniele Rossi – I am a fluid dynamicist specialized in numerical simulations of multiphase flows. I am interested in numerical methods for studying practical multiphase problems, such as liquid sloshing dynamics, as well as environmental applications, such as convection in porous media. I received my BS and MS in Aerospace Engineering from Sapienza University of Rome, where I also earned my PhD in Aeronautics and Space Engineering.

Lou Kondic – Prof. Kondic is a Distinguished Professor from New Jersey Institute of Technology (US) and guest professor (2026-2028) at TU Wien. His research interests span a wide range of topics in fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, including thin films, coating flows, liquid-solid interactions, micro- and nano-scale fluidics, multiphase problems including phase change. In particular, he extensively worked on granular matter, from dense granular systems to the effects of microstructure on macro properties; and energy propagation. More details available here.
