Laboratory-scale combustors provide a convenient platform to study complicated combustion processes occuring in rockets and gas turbines. One major theme of my research is investigating novel mitigation strategies for controlling thermoacoustic instability in laminar and turbulent combustors.

• Best of the two worlds - asynchronous quenching and amplitude death via mutual coupling
• Acoustic self-feedback in a laminar thermoacoustic system
• Control of thermoacoustic instability in a bluff-body stabilized turbulent combustor via self-coupling
