ABOUT ME

I started my career as an academician in the School of Mathematical Sciences in October 2020 after graduating her PhD from University of Leeds in Computing. My research interests are related to Computational Fluid Dynamics.. My work involves the numerical simulation for non-Newtonian fluid (viscoelastic - polymer melt) behavior in a geometrical flow.

I am looking for motivated students who are interested in doing research in Computational Fluid Dynamic and Numerical methods. In particular those who are interested in exploring the rheological behavior of the molten polymer in geometrical flow. Get in touch with me via the following email address adilaazahar@usm.my for further details.
