Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMarco Fossati is a Professor of Aerodynamics based in Glasgow with nine years of focused experience in computational aerodynamics and a long academic trajectory rooted in a PhD from Politecnico di Milano. He specialises in data-driven reduced-order modelling, hypersonic aerothermodynamics, atmospheric entry and next-generation aircraft aerodynamics, translating complex CFD research into practical tools and guidance for aerospace projects. At the University of Strathclyde he progressed from Lecturer to Reader and now Professor, while maintaining roles with the Aerospace Centre of Excellence and international collaborations dating back to McGill and Politecnico. His work blends rigorous theory with computational practice, often bridging high-fidelity simulations and reduced models to speed design cycles for extreme flight regimes. Colleagues describe him as an applied researcher who prioritises deployable methods over purely theoretical results, and he frequently contributes to multidisciplinary teams tackling real-world entry and hypersonic challenges.
