Duncan Dockar Profile photo

I am a Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellow, currently investigating the viability of deploying nanobubbles for enhanced water-treatment processes. My research covers high-fidelity numerical modelling of interfacial heat and mass transfer, non-equilibrium fluid mechanics, and phase change, with a special interest in cavitation.

PhD University of Edinburgh 2020

MEng University of Edinburgh 2016

  • Thesis title: Modelling Propulsion of Nano-Swimmers

My research uses Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and theoretical modelling, covering interfacial heat and mass transfer, non-equilibrium fluid mechanics, and phase change, to model non-trivial nanoscale fluid phenomena, including:

  • bulk nanobubble diffusive stability and growth dynamics
  • cavitation bubble nucleation, rapid growth and oscillations, and violent collapse
  • electrophoretic motion of nanobubbles/nanoparticles under electric fields

I welcome enquiries from prospective PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, visitors, and industrial/non-academic collaborators.
