Sean Moran
Hometown: Cheyenne, Wy
Undergraduate: Gonzaga University
Program: MS (Graduated May 2012)
Current Position: Engineer - TD Williamson
Research Interests: Environmental Fluid Dynamics (experimental and computational) with a focus on momentum transport, particle (PM10 and PM2.5) transport and deposition, atmospheric turbulence, turbulent mixing and deposition of scalars with variable atmospheric stability, wind tunnel and field testing of turbulence within vegetative canopies (porous medium), grid-generated isotropic turbulence, sonic anemometry, and hot-wire anemometry. Additional research interests include Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Large-Eddy Simulation (LES).
