Gat, Amir

Associate Professor
History Highlights:
  • Dr. Amir Gat is a theoretical fluid dynamicist and an expert in the field of low-Reynolds-number fluid-structure-interaction. He obtained his B.Sc. (2005, Summa Cum Laude) and Ph.D. (2010, special track) from the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering, Technion. He then proceeded to a postdoc position at Gharib's group at Caltech (2010-2012) and is with the faculty of Mechanical Engineering since October 2012.
Research Interests:
  • Theoretical research of low-Reynolds and free-surface flows
  • Interaction of fluid flows with deformation and motion of solid structures
  • Analysis and optimization of complex micro-fluidic networks for fuel cells and lab-on-a-chip applications
