Dr Danielle Moreau
Senior Lecturer, School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering UNSW Sydney
Dr Danielle Moreau is a senior lecturer in the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at UNSW Sydney. Her research focuses on the understanding and control of flow-induced noise to aid the design of quiet modern technologies such as submarines, wind turbines, fans, UAVs and aircraft. Her work benefits society by improving the liveability and health of communities affected by noise and urbanisation. It also supports Australia’s Defence capability, specifically naval and air systems that rely on low noise signatures for survival.
Danielle obtained her BE(hons) and PhD from the School of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Adelaide in 2005 and 2010, respectively. Her PhD research on the topic of virtual sensing algorithms for active noise control was recognized through award of the University Doctoral Research Medal.
Following PhD completion, Danielle was employed as a postdoctoral research associate in the School of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Adelaide for close to five years. In 2013, she was named the Fulbright Scholar for South Australia enabling her to undertake an airfoil noise research program at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
In 2015, Danielle joined the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at UNSW where she currently holds the position of senior lecturer. She was awarded an ARC DECRA fellowship in 2015 and a NSW Young Tall Poppy Science Award in 2016. She has more than 100 refereed publications and is currently Chief Editor of Acoustics Australia.
