Biography:Sivaramakrishnan Balachandar
Sivaramakrishnan Balachandar is a professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Sivaramakrishnan is an American physicist, a Distinguished Professor and William F. Powers Professor at University of Florida.[1][2][3][4]
Balachandar has contributed to the understanding of thermal convection in the Earth's mantle, the structure of bluff body wakes and their effect on the dynamics of small particles, the dynamics of vortices in wall turbulence, and the theory of two-phase flow, including the equilibrium Euler formulation for dispersion force.
He was made a Fellow[5] of the American Physical Society[6] after being nominated by their Division of Fluid Dynamics in 2006.,[7] and he received the Francois Naftali Frenkiel Award from the American Physical Society Division of Fluid Dynamics in 1996[8] He is also a fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
