Profile
Dr Yangyang LIU
Research Fellow
Dr. Yangyang Liu earned his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 2020, specialising in fluid dynamics. Prior to joining Cambridge CARES in Singapore, he worked as a Research Fellow at NUS. At CARES, Dr. Liu conducted comprehensive research on the numerical simulation of ammonia leakage during ship-to-ship bunkering operations. This work was particularly significant due to the growing interest in ammonia as a sustainable marine fuel, which has highlighted the importance of understanding potential safety hazards and developing risk mitigation strategies for bunkering processes.
Dr Liu's study employed advanced numerical simulation techniques to analyse the fluid dynamics and dispersion characteristics of ammonia leakage scenarios in ship-to-ship bunkering operations. This research was conducted as part of the C4T programme, contributing valuable insights to the field of sustainable maritime operations and safety.
