Short Bio: Luís Eça

Luís Eça is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) of the University of Lisbon. He received the M.S, Ph.D. and “Agregação” degrees from Technical University of Lisbon in 1987, 1993 and 2009 respectively. He has been working in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for the last 35 years in cooperation with the Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN). The main topics of the research have been the simulation of high Reynolds number flows around complex geometries and Verification and Validation in CFD. In the last few years, RANS modelling of low Reynolds number flows and surface roughness effects have been addressed within the MARIN-IST cooperation.
