Duy Nguyen
Duy is an "Impossible-Without-You" scientist at CSIRO Australia, with expertise in computational fluid dynamics and turbulence modelling. His current projects involve hydrodynamic and water quality modelling of oceans, lakes, and rivers, combined with emerging hyperspectral and multispectral imagery technologies and in-situ water quantity and quality sensing. He integrates physical systems and AI/ML to model and forecast water quality and quantity.
Duy leads the Vietnam AquaWatch pilot (under the CSIRO AquaWatch Program), where the team is building a monitoring and forecasting water quality system for the aquaculture farms. Duy is serving as chair of several associations, including the Australian National CERC Fellow Committee and the Group on Earth Observation AquaWatch Early Career Society. Duy has won several awards from universities and governments, including in research, teaching, education, and social engagements.
Duy completed his Bachelor of Engineering from Saint Petersburg, Russia, and subsequently joined Bosch Hydraulics in Germany to work on industrial pump design. Thereafter, Duy went to the University of Notre Dame at South Bend, IN, USA, to finish his M.S., studying the sea spray concentration in the marine atmospheric boundary layer using a Large Eddy Simulation. This led to his involvement with the Vietnam Academy of Water Resources and Thuy Loi University in Vietnam before he joined the University of Sydney in Australia and completed his PhD in Environmental Fluid Dynamics by using Direct Numerical Simulation to investigate the effect of meanders on thermally stratified riverine flow.
