CoARIce

Development of Collaborative Academic & Research Program to Study Ice Accretion on Structures in Cold Regions

Professor's Visit from Iowa State University, USA

Professor Hu Hui from Iowa State University, USA visited arcICE UiT in October 2022 as part of CoARICE project. 

Dr. Hui Hu is the Martin C. Jischke Professor and Associate Dept. Chair for Graduate Education at Department of Aerospace Engineering, Iowa State University. He received his BS, MS and PhD degrees in Aerospace Engineering from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (BUAA) in China, and a PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Tokyo in Japan. His recent research interests include advanced optical/laser-based diagnostics, aircraft/aero-engine icing physics and anti-/de-icing technology; flight dynamics of Unmanned-Aerial-Systems (UAS); wind energy and wind turbine aeromechanics; Fluid-Structure Interactions (FSI) of built structures in violent windstorms (e.g., tornadoes, downbursts, and snowstorms). Dr. Hu is an ASME Fellow and AIAA Associate Fellow. He is serving as an editor of “Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science-Elsevier” and an associate editor of “ASME Journal of Fluid Engineering” and “ASME Open Journal of Engineering”. Dr. Hu received several prestigious awards in recent years, including 2006 NSF-CAREER Award, 2007 Best Paper in Fluid Mechanics Award (Measurement Science and Technology, IOP Publishing), 2009 AIAA Best Paper Award in Applied Aerodynamics, 2012 Mid-Career Achievement in Research Award of Iowa State University, 2013 AIAA Best Paper Award in Ground Testing Technology, 2014 Renewable Energy Impact Award of Iowa Energy Center, and 2022 AIAA Best Paper Award on Atmospheric and Space Environments.
