Key details
Dr Zhaozhi Wang
Lecturer in Mathematical Modeling
I have been working as a Research Fellow, Senior Research Fellow and Lecturer within since June 2003. My main research role is associated with the development of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelling techniques and the development of the SMARTFIRE fire simulation software which is currently used internationally. Recent work includes fire safety analysis using the coupled fire and evacuation simulation technique.
Qualifications
