Summary
Jakob Hærvig is an Associate Professor and research group leader at Aalborg University with 10 years of experience in fluid dynamics, heat transfer and data-driven simulation. He specializes in multiphase flows and coupled CFD-DEM methods, and his PhD work produced a widely adopted stiffness–surface energy scaling that speeds up adhesive particle simulations. Jakob combines advanced numerical modeling (OpenFOAM, LIGGGHTS, CFDEM) with practical validation in turbulent and industrial flows, and has held visiting positions at TUM and IIT Jodhpur. He also bridges research and project management training through ongoing studies in project leadership, enabling him to translate complex multiphysics problems into computationally efficient solutions.
