Biography

Prior to joining AEM, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Sandia National Laboratories. Lee is an expert in simulating turbulence with high-performance computing systems. His research interests include direct numerical simulation of various turbulent flows, e.g., wall-bounded turbulence at high-Reynolds numbers, turbulent convections, turbulent combustions, etc.
