o
o
o
thermodynamics; phase equilibria, interfacial phenomena,
adsorption, molecular simulations, experimental measurements,
classical/statistical modeling
kinetics; micropore diffusion, meso/macropore diffusion, membrane
permeation and diffusion, measurements, theoretical modeling
processes; gas separations, gas (methane and hydrogen) storage,
environmental problems, bioseparations, ion-exchange
material synthesis; silica systems (e.g. zeolites, mesoporous silica) in
different forms (e.g. powder, membrane, agglomerate) with/without
field enhancement (e.g. high gravity, electrical, magnetic) and

Collaborating with Professor Jingqing Han, Dr. Gao
has worked quietly on active disturbance rejection
control for the last 20 years, nurturing it from its
early, conceptual stage to a maturing and emerging
industrial control technology. In doing so, he made
an obscure idea clear and established firmly a
general design principle in dealing with uncertainties
in industrial settings, often with staggering
improvements in performance and energy saving.
Asking basic, rudimentary questions in research
and in teaching, Dr. Gao and his team find creative
solutions in practice and vitality in education. Dr.
Gao’s research and teaching materials can be found

Primary research areas of interest are in mathematical modeling, numerical
simulation (CFD) and experimental investigation of fluid flow and heat and
mass transfer mechanisms in engineering power systems. Other areas of
interest include the application of thermal-fluid principles to energy related
manufacturing processes. Project examples include:
• CFD Models and Simulations of Baking Bread in a Tunnel Oven
• Theoretical Basis for a 3-D Stirling Engine Loss Model
• 2nd. Law Analysis of Sage & CFD-ACE Models of MIT Test-Rigs
• Numerical Analysis of a Radiant Drying Oven for Web Applications
• Discrete-Vortical Elements Approximation of the Circular Couette Flow
between two Rotating Concentric Cylinders
• Computer modeling, thermal energy management, fluid flow studies and
design sensitivity analyses of various GM, Ford, Chrysler and Isuzu
product lines
Co-authored/independently written several funded teaching/research
proposals and peer-reviewed technical papers published in engineering
journals and conference proceedings.
