Associate Professor Danielle Moreau
- Doctor of Philosophy (2010): The University of Adelaide. Thesis: Spatially fixed and moving virtual sensing methods for active noise control.
- Bachelor of Engineering (Mechatronic) (2005): The University of Adelaide. First class honours
Dr Danielle Moreau is an Associate Professor in the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at the University of New South Wales. She is a member of the Flow Noise Group and her current research is in the field of aeroacoustics. Her research focuses on the understanding and control of flow-induced noise with the aim of quietening modern technologies such as submarines, wind turbines, fans, UAVs and aircraft. Dr Moreau's major research contributions have been in (i) wall-mounted finite airfoil aeroacoustics, (ii) airfoil trailing edge noise production and control, (iii) rotor, fan and wind turbine noise generation and (iv) bluff body aeroacoustics.
