Dr Andrew Sleigh

Hi	Dr Andrew Sleigh Senior Lecturer in Fluid Mechanics Civil Engineering School of Civil Engineering University of Leeds LS2 9JT, UK Phone: +44 (0)113 343 2398 Fax: +44 (0)113 343 2265 E-mail: P.A.Sleigh@leeds.ac.uk

Andrew Sleigh joined the Department of Civil Engineering at Leeds after completing six years in the adjoining Department of Mechanical Engineering as a Research Fellow in the field of CFD. The initial project during this period concerned the development on Multigrid acceleration techniques for incompressible flow problems. Following this he moved on to work on the development of a model for open channel flows based on the SPRINT2D system. Now in the Civil Engineering Department he is concerned with the computational modelling of waste water treatment systems.

Aerobiology

This is a very hot topic both in the media and in term of research have a look at the Aerobiolgical Research Group's pages

Some Not So Recent (but still relevant) Work

Below are some links to recent work using SPRINT2D. This is a finite volume based solver for general fluid dynamics problems. It has been used here to solve the shallow water equations and applied to several Civil Engineering problems such as coastal waters, flows in rivers and estuaries and recreational canoe courses.

The Tees Canoe Course is a nice example of a complex domain with fast flowing water.
This is a example of a typical river and estuary problem.

It demonstrates some topological issues involved with the shallow water equations in practical situations. Estuary
