Research Interests
|
|
My research interests are in numerical methods for partial differential equations, with applications to a variety of problems in science and engineering. Current applications include astrophysics, biological modeling, geophysical fluid dynamics, and plasma physics. I am also developing high-performance software tools to support the use of adaptive finite-volume methods and particle methods across multiple applications domains. |
