My profile
Biography
Dr Wei Bai is currently a Reader at the Department of Computing and Mathematics, Manchester Metropolitan University. Prior to joining MMU in December 2016, he has been an Assistant Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, National University of Singapore. From 1992, Dr Bai studied at Dalian University of Technology, China, and received his PhD there in Port, Coastal and Offshore Engineering in 2001. Following this, he worked as a researcher at various universities, including Strathclyde, Oxford and Manchester Met before moving to Singapore in 2009.
For more than two decades now Dr. Bai has devoted his efforts to the research of computational marine hydrodynamics, with emphasis in numerical simulation of water wave interaction with marine structures. He has accumulated a wealth of experience in numerical simulations and has developed independently a number of programs for calculating both potential flow and viscous flow with or without free water surfaces in two and three dimensions. These works enable us to get a good insight into physical phenomena related to wave-structure interactions, and provide meaningful hydrodynamic information for offshore and coastal engineering.
Who am I?
