Department Information
Department of Engineering Science
www.eng.ox.ac.uk Dr Yiannis Ventikos, MA (PhD National Technical U, Athens). Yiannis formed the Fluidics and Biocomplexity Group when he joined the University of Oxford, in 2003. He is a member of the Institute of Biomedical Engineering and a Fellow and Tutor in Engineering at Wadham College. He has studied and worked (for shorter or longer periods of time!) in Switzerland, Greece, France and the USA, before coming to Oxford.
Research Interests
Yiannis's interests and specialization focus on computational simulation methods for complex phenomena, with an emphasis on multiscale/multiphysics modelling, biological/clinical transport phenomena, fluid mechanics, micro- and nano-technologies, sustainability and the environment and innovative manufacturing and processing techniques.
Teaching
Yiannis teaches 1st year and 4th year undergraduate, and graduate courses at the Department and has tutorials with the 1st and 2nd year students at Wadham. He covers courses on the Thermofluids area, as well as on biomedical engineering and modelling. Research Group
