Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering
University of California, San Diego

Prof. Bewley (Caltech M.S., B.S 1989; Stanford Ph.D. 1998), joined the Dynamic Systems and Control group of the MAE Dept. at UC San Diego in 1998, after completing his Ph.D. at the Center for Turbulence Research at Stanford. The research interests of his lab focus on the control, forecasting, and optimization of laminar and turbulent flows. His work involves a blend of: - large-scale simulations of chaotic fluid systems, - modern linear and nonlinear control and optimization theory, - characterization of controlled fluid systems with the inequalities available for Navier-Stokes systems, and - the merging of these tools to develop fundamental new systems perspectives on a variety of open problems in fluid mechanics.
